Over seven weeks after announcing he is cancer-free, White Sox closer Liam Hendriks is heading back to the big leagues.
Chicago announced that Hendriks had been added back to the active roster on Sunday with an emotional tribute video. Hendriks revealed in January that he had been diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Prior to his reinstatement, he appeared in six games during his rehab assignment in Triple-A Charlotte.
In the video, White Sox players and coaches share warm messages to their teammate, welcoming him back and congratulating him for completing his return to the mound.
