Poor ol' Fred Merkle from "Great Moments In Baseball - The Boner and the Muff: A Tale Of Two Freds"...


He said he did it all for the money. The big leagues weren't so big into the fat paychecks back then. Finally booted from baseball in 1919 after snaking around accusations from, among others, Christy Mathewson and Frank Chance, he rattled around outlaw leagues in the West and - surprise - Mexico. He tried to get a league going on down there, but, oopsie daisy, was kicked out of the country by none other than Mexican President Plutarco Elias Calles. Word of his disreputability had travelled south of the border. He died in Calfornia in 1947.
