Berkshire Eagle, January 22, 1928

On Saturday, an exciting game of junior high school basketball was played in Stockbridge, with the local lads getting the better of a squad from Lenox by a 24-20 tally.

The Stockbridge team was led by seventh grader Mike O'Farrell, who scored nine points. O'Farrell is proving himself to be as adept on the hardwood as he was on the gridiron, where he is one of the finest players his age in western Massachusetts. It is as a pitcher, however, that young O'Farrell truly shines...

(Pat asked the editors of the Eagle to refrain from making continual references to his children as "the son" or "the daughter of Boston Red Sox star Pat O'Farrell," prefering them to be recognized for their own accomplishments. Only if any other child's parents would be mentioned did the O'Farrells wish to be identified along with their children. The editors respected Pat's wishes.)
