Baseball legend and Hall of Famer Wade Boggs has announced he is cancer-free, just two years after revealing his prostate cancer diagnosis. The 66-year-old shared the uplifting news on Friday night, declaring, "I'm a cancer survivor now. Prostate cancer is null and void. Thank God."

Boggs, who threw out the first pitch at Fenway Park before the Boston Red Sox faced the Tampa Bay Rays, credited early detection for his successful outcome. He was diagnosed in 2024 and underwent treatment in Florida. "It's a process that you have to go through, and I encourage all young men to get your PSA tests," Boggs urged. "Please go out there. Because mine, it wasn't even on the radar. It was a 3.3, and they don't even start talking about it until it gets to four. But I had the bad one, and we caught it early... I had my checkup a month ago, and I'm completely cancer-free."

The ceremony at Fenway Park also celebrated the 125th anniversary of the Red Sox's first-ever home game on May 8, 1901. Boggs joined fellow franchise icons like David Ortiz, Jim Rice, Carl Yastrzemski, Carlton Fisk, and Pedro Martinez for the milestone event.

Boggs, inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2005, enjoyed an 18-season MLB career with the Red Sox, New York Yankees, and Rays. As a third baseman, he amassed an impressive resume: 12-time All-Star, two-time Gold Glove winner, five-time AL batting champion, eight-time Silver Slugger, and a World Series champion with the Yankees in 1996. Both the Red Sox and Rays have retired his number, cementing his legacy as one of the game's greats. Now, he adds "cancer survivor" to his list of triumphs—a win that resonates far beyond the diamond.
