Who am I? #1

[frankbmd]

I am calm.

I never wore a baseball glove while playing. I may have borrowed one occasionally.

I am most similar to a post war player who played five years longer than me with a career batting average of .089

If you know who I am, answer the following question.


1. What's my nickname?
2. Why didn't I wear a glove?
3. Who is my similarity partner?
