According to "Polish Surnames: Origins and Meanings," Rzepczynski comes from the word "rzepa," which means "turnip," and in the early 1990s there were 1,031 people in Poland with that surname.
It could have been worse for that pitcher. Among the 811,000-plus different surnames in Poland, he could have ended up with "Bogus" or "Moron."
By the way, Bogdanski means "God-given."
