What about Koufax or Clemente, neither of them really had a nickname that I can think of.... certainly not in the context of how I'm thinking of it.... like Georgia Peach, Mr October... etc.... maybe there were terms loosely used like "lefty" for Koufax, etc... but not a truly recognized nickname.

Why are there so many pitchers nicknamed "lefty" but not a single one called "righty"?

Because the overwhelming number of people are right-handed. Designating someone as "lefty" highlights the uniqueness of being left-handed.

I think Chris Berman used to say- Barry "US" Bonds when doing ESPN highlights, but that wasn't so official.
