He was known for his vast array of pitches and deliveries — one of his managers, Eddie Dyer, nicknamed him "Thomas Edison" for his inventiveness — and for the longevity of his career. Dickson was a better than average hitting pitcher in his big league career, posting a .231 batting average (253-for-1095) with 81 runs, 34 doubles, 3 home runs, and 82 runs batted in (RBI).
