From 1882 through 1892, there was an outfielder who played under the name Chicken Wolf. If there were a Hall of Fame for baseball names, his would certainly be near the top. Wolf gets extra points because his given name was William Van Winkle. He wasn't a bad player, either, batting .290 for his career and topping the AA with a .363 mark in 1890.
While Chicken Wolf is an incredible name, there are many other amazing names across MLB history. What are some of your favorite baseball names?
