Default Nickname "Swingers"

There are lots of old ballplayers, many of whom had nicknames, but sometimes the nickname would have been more appropriate for another guy.

Looking for real people and a real nickname associated with someone else, that is a better fit.

#2 below is exactly what i am looking for.

Not too many rules here (only one), but someone will break it.

I will add to list below from the posts on the thread at my discretion.

Join the fun.

#1 Red Barber - "The Yankee Clipper"

#2 "Oil Can" Oyler

#3 Connie Mack "Truck"

#4 Jerry Mallett - "The Hammer"

Frank Thomas is not the "Big Hurt", Ellsbury is, he's hurt 100% of the time.
