Berry had experienced bleeding for the past few days while Houston was on a road trip and figured he was simply passing kidney stones. The tumor was found on his right kidney during a consultation with a doctor on Wednesday and another visit is set for Thursday to schedule the procedure.
Berry played 11 major league seasons, including three for the Astros. He joined the organization as a minor league coach in 2003.
