White Sox Pitcher Danny Farquhar in Stable Condition After Brain Surgery

Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Danny Farquhar underwent brain surgery resulting from the aneurysm he suffered Friday night, White Sox vice president Ken Williams announced.

"He's a fighter, and he's in the fight of his life right now," Williams said, per USA Today's Bob Nightengale. "They had to do another surgery, cracking his skull open, and putting a clamp on it. My God. This certainly shows the fragility of life and how we take every day for granted. And it can change in a heartbeat. Literally."

According to Nightengale, Farquhar underwent a procedure Saturday night and is in critical, but stable condition in an ICU unit in a Chicago-area hospital.
