Johnny and Eddie O’Brien earned their nickname on the hardcourt, where Johnny set the record for most points scored by a major college player, and Eddie led the nation in assists.  Both were drafted by the NBA’s Milwaukee Hawks.  They earned their living as the first twins to form a keystone combination in the major leagues.  They had modest careers with the Pirates, but were athletic middle infielders with the talent to be tried as big-league pitchers.
