Michael Riley "Doc" Powers, catcher for the Philadelphia Athletics and a physician, became seriously ill during a game. He'd ultimately die of peritonitis a few days later, after three intestinal operation. He blamed his condition on earthing a cheese sandwich during the game, while some though he'd been injured straining to catch a foul ball, or by crashing into a wall during the game.
He was 38 years old at the time of his death.
I’m guessing the cheese sandwich was right. Having been a victim of the dreaded gasoline station sandwich, and having witnesses my son virtually rendered comatose due to one, I think Doc was right.
