Nig Cuppy, who pitched for the Spiders, Beaneaters and Perfectos around the turn of the century.

His nickname, "Nig", is often adjudged to be a racist reference to his dark complexion.[3] In the first half of the 20th Century, before the game was integrated, ball players with a dark complexion were sometimes nicknamed "Nig."[6] In addition to Cuppy, the following other major league players bore the nickname: Johnny Beazley (1941-49), Joe Berry (1921-22), Bobby Bragan (1940-48), Nig Clarke, Nig Fuller (1902), Johnny Grabowski (1923-31), Don Gutteridge (1936-1948), Nig Lipscomb (1937), Charlie Niebergall (1921-24), Nig Perrine (1907), and Frank Smith (1904-15).

Dark complexion?
