As a Mets maniac (with no actual evidence to back this up), it seems Tom Seaver only got hits when he went up there and squared around to bunt a runner over, but as the pitch was released and the infielders raced in to field said bunt, he would pull the bat back and slap/swing at the ball for an 'easy' hit past them.

I will go with Ferrell as well but here are two Reds:
Red Ruffing: Used as a pinch hitter 260 times (Ferrell was used 163 times). Career 36/273/.269. Career WAR as batter 13.3 (Ferrell was 11.3). Ferrell has him in OPS .797 to .695. Red Lucas: Used as a pinch hitter 506(!) times. Not a lot of power 3/190/.281. OPS .687. WAR as batter 12.0. There are also some Negro Leaguers and 19th century players that could be in the discussion.
