Former Major League outfielder Dave Roberts is being treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Roberts was diagnosed in mid-March and says the cancer was detected early. He says the prognosis is "good" and has undergone two rounds of chemotherapy so far.

Roberts will forever be a part of Red Sox lore for his stolen base against the Yankees during the 2004 postseason.
