samuel arthur `` sam '' bohne -lrb- born samuel arthur cohen ; october 22 , 1896 , in san francisco , california -- may 23 , 1977 in palo alto , california -rrb- , is a former professional baseball player who played second base from 1916 to 1926 .
bohne was jewish , but according to author john rosengren , the cincinnati reds persuaded him to change his name to bohne because its front office ' `` brain trust '' did n't believe the city 's largely german population would welcome a player named cohen .
