San Francisco Giants broadcaster Duane Kuiper writes that he'll miss games due to medical condition

San Francisco Giants play-by-play announcer Duane Kuiper announced on Monday that he was recently diagnosed with an undisclosed medical condition and will require chemotherapy.

In his announcement, which was posted on multiple San Francisco Giants social media channels, Kuiper thanked his family and colleagues for their support and said he's hoping for a "quick and full recovery." He still plans to announce games this season, but will take off more games than usual.

"I feel very fortunate that I have an incredibly talented team of doctors and healthcare specialists who will be assisting me throughout my treatment plan," he wrote, in part.
