Bobby Murcer, the former Yankee who has called decades of Yankees games, is recovering from his cancer treatment. Murcer was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2006, and his family issued a statement saying, "While he has shown some measured improvement in recent days, this is clearly a major battle...Bobby remains hopeful that he will be able to resume his broadcasting work down the road but for now he is appreciative of the thoughts and prayers of his fans, and wants them to know that he is aware that he is in their hearts, as they are in his."
