                My wife would watch the Yanks play on TV with me, she was kind of a novice about Baseball
                & she actually thought 'El duque' was actually his real name as that's all the announcers referred
                to him as It took me a while to actually convince her of his real name Orlando Hernandez.

                  "Putt-Putt", "The Tilden Flash", and "Whitey" or as Harry Kalas called him "His Whiteness." How enjoyable was it to listen to those two growing up with the teams they had.
                  How about his whiz kid teammate Willie 'Puddin' Head' Jones a power hittier for those days at 3rd base.

                    'Dr. Strangeglove' Dick Stuart of the Pirates

                    "The Arkansas Hummingbird' Lon Warneke 20 gamewinner for the Cubs in their pennant winning seasons of 1932 & 35.

                    The best nickname IMO was the Michigan State All-American back of the late 1950's.
                    Walt Kowalczyk the 'Sprinting Blacksmith"
                    “The Sprinting Blacksmith” didn’t just play for the Spartans, he was a Spartan … tough, hard-nosed, blue-collar.

                    Over his career, MSU went 24-4 with consecutive top ten rankings and two top-three finishes. Kowalczyk was MVP of the 1956 Rose Bowl. During his season year, the Spartans lost only one game (Purdue) and beat rivals Michigan and Notre Dame by a combined score of 69-12. Those wins and margins were Kowalczyk’s crowning glory.
