ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Andrew Vaughn sent Liam Hendriks a text as soon as he heard the Chicago White Sox closer was cancer-free.
“(I) said, ‘When does the rehab assignment start?’ ” the Sox first baseman said Friday before the Sox opened a three-game series against the Rays at Tropicana Field. “He replied, ‘As soon as I get my first live BP and it’s on.’ That’s pretty cool.”
Hendriks’ announcement Thursday on Instagram brought smiles throughout the Sox clubhouse.
