Two men with strikingly similar appearances, the same name, and the same job decided to take a DNA test to see if they were long-lost brothers. Both named Brady Feigl, the 6'4" red-haired, red-bearded baseball pitchers share not only their looks but also their profession, making their connection even more bizarre. One plays for the Pericos de Puebla in Mexico, while the other is a pitcher for the Oakland Athletics in the U.S.
The DNA test revealed they aren’t biologically related, despite their uncanny resemblance. However, both share 53-percent Germanic ancestry, likely tracing back to ancestors who arrived in the U.S. through Ellis Island. While there were slight differences in their heritage, such as varying amounts of Irish, Scottish, and Italian roots, the two have embraced their unique bond, calling themselves "brothers in a way" and enjoying the attention their story has brought.
