I'll go with Molesworth. Just a dumpy looking guy, plus the name Carlton Molesworth makes him sounds like he could be a butler or footman on Downton Abbey.

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.

Few can match this one. It could be used as evidence that aliens arrived on our planet in the early 20th century and managed to get pretty good at baseball:

Some of the poses seem to be rendered by an artist with no baseball acumen whatsoever. Either that or the players were goofing around while posing. I believe John Cleese might have been inspired to create the Monty Python "Minister of Silly Walks " sketch from SOME of the artwork. Quirky, indeed, but they still ain't Don Mossi "ugly"

Speaking of artwork, I type this without doing a search but, do we know who the artists were that did the T206 run?
