"Bobo" Newsom got his nickname because he couldn't remember (or didn't care enough to learn) anyone's name and so he referred to everyone as "Bobo".

Bobo also pitched a pretty good hunk of a game with a broken leg...Bill James wrote that you could easily fill a book with Bobo Newsom stories, wish he had actually done it.

Josh Outman would have been perfect had he been any good.
