Nippy was my first thought as well! (edit: I guess he was your actually 2nd thought, but at least he was doubly remembered.)
Morrie Rath is probably best known for getting plunked by Eddie Cicotte to start the 1919 World Series, but I'm not sure whether his career is truly solid or more in the semi-permeable range.
