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.

I've seen Koufax referred to as the Left Arm of God.

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

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