Two 6-foot-4 red-headed baseball players donning thick ginger beards and glasses share the same name: Brady Feigl.

Now, a recent DNA test has shown the two are not related.

Inside Edition first introduced the two pitchers – one is a 23-year-old right-handed starting pitcher in the Oakland Athletics system and the other a 28-year-old left-handed relief pitcher in the Texas Rangers’ system – in September 2018.

Both Feigls had 53 percent Germanic European roots, but they weren’t a perfect match.
