324. Skewedonyms
The inconsistent spellings of certain players’ names (Jimmie/Jimmy Foxx, Lew/Lou Burdette, Satchel/Satchell Paige and Dick/Richie Allen, e.g.) used by the card companies.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Mo is a great guy. Met him at a company picnic we had for lunch one day when he just happened to be coming in to meet one of my former colleague's at a firm I used to work at. For a short time we were doing his accounting and tax work for his company, Mo Vaughn Trucking, out of Solon, Ohio I believe.

If nicknames count, Topps used "Doc" Gooden and "Rock" Raines for a couple years.
