I didn't see this posted anywhere else, but Jimmy Farrell who was the Cubs umpire room attendant for 26 years passed away at the age of 91. I remember reading a book by Gene Wojciechowski about the 2004 Cubs season and there was part about Farrell in there and how surprised he was when he got a call from Jim Hendry on Thanksgiving saying that the players were giving him a portion their playoff money from the 2003 playoffs. R.I.P Mr. Farrell
