Interesting read.

Which then led me to another former Ag player with a Wiki page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topper_Rigney

That August, a story came out that Mrs. Wilma Place of Detroit thought she had been married to Collins for three years, only to find out she had not been. Wilma was married in Boston in 1922 and became Mrs. Warren Collins. They moved to Detroit, and her husband told her he needed to leave the Red Sox and change his name to Charles Place, an alias to protect him against a fan who was angry because he'd thrown a bat at the man. Then Charles disappeared in January, leaving behind Charles Jr. as well, but writing Wilma from time to time that he hadn't been able to hook on with another team. She had never followed baseball, so she had no idea that the real Warren Collins had been traded to Detroit and was playing right there in the city.

"[Wacha] had an off-field accident that resulted in a concussion," manager Matt Quatraro said. "Nothing overly serious, we don't think, but something that's going to keep him from pitching a minimum of seven days. So he'll go back to Kansas City and get evaluated by the doctors."

Quatraro did not disclose exactly how Wacha sustained the concussion beyond saying it was an off-field accident. The further evaluation back in Kansas City will help determine the severity and whether Wacha will miss more than the seven days required for a stay on the concussion list.
