During the 4th inning of Saturday nights broadcast, Ron Daring revealed that doctors have found a large mass in his chest that will require surgery to be removed. Ron didn't go in to much further detail, but said he'll "kick it's you know what".
Best wishes and a safe, speedy recovery, @RonDarlingJr.

If all goes well Ron hopes to be back to work in about a month. In his absence Todd Zeile will be filling in alongside Gary and Keith.
All the best, Ronnie. YOU GOT THIS!

There’s nobody better than Ronnie. We’ll miss him for the next couple of weeks, but can’t wait to have him back in the booth soon...right where he belongs.

I can't say enough good things about @RonDarlingJr. He's the best in the world at what he does. He's one of the most caring people I've ever met, and I can't wait to see him back at the ballpark soon.

Of all the great people I was fortunate enough to meet this past decade with the @Mets, @RonDarlingJr is top of the charts in terms of humility, humanity and kindness... not to mention knowledge. Get better soon, Ronnie!

Kick off your Memorial Day Weekend at our tailgate on Saturday May 24th! You don't need to be sitting with The 7 Line Army to tailgate together. Let's get the good vibes started in the parking lot and hopefully they continue until last pitch. Food, drinks, games, music and more in the Marina Lot.
Our 4th trip to Fenway is set for Monday May 19th. We're rolling with 1,000 fans, and we'd love to see as many of your amazin' faces at the pre-game as possible. Drinks specials, bowling, pool tables, and more.
Swing by the K Korner on Friday May 9th before the Mets take on the Cubs. If you're sitting with us or not, you can enjoy exclusive specials on Montauk draft beers by rocking T7L merch to the bar.
The 7 Line
