NEW YORK (AP) — Darryl
Strawberry had his left kidney re
moved during cancer surgery earlier
this month, placing another hurdle in
his possible return to baseball.
A friend of the former Yankees
slugger confirmed a report in Tues
day’s Newsday that Strawberry's
surgery Aug. 7 was more serious than
previously indicated and led to the re
moval of the kidney.
It was not immediately known
why the kidney had been removed.
After the operation, doctors said they
removed a tumor near his left kidney
and there was no obvious spread of
cancer. The doctors were optimistic
for an “uneventful recovery.”
After spending 11 days at Colum-
bia-Presbyterian Medical Center,
Strawberry, 38, quietly returned
home to Tampa, Fla., last week,
where his is “emotionally and phys
ically tired,” according to the friend,
who spoke to the Associated Press on
condition he not be identified.

to play some of the good teams and
