Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Tanner Houck reacted to news on Sunday that he has to undergo Tommy John surgery.

It is now referred to simply as “Tommy John surgery." “It’s amazing how many careers that surgery has saved," John, 81, tells USA TODAY Sports from his Florida home.

John had his breakthrough surgery at 31 years old and after 12 years in the majors, most with the Chicago White Sox. He pitched for 14 more years after returning in 1975.

Houck had non-surgical alternatives available, including platelet-rich plasma and stem-cell treatment, to try to fix his arm.
