Fowler played in Canada in 1881. He was originally signed by a team in Guelph, but his teammates refused to play with him. He then briefly signed with Petrolia, but his teammates threw the game when Fowler took the mound, and he left town soon after.

See, for example, William Humber, editor, _All I Thought About Was Baseball: Writings on a Canadian Pastime_.
