Tuesday Trivia: Back-to-back MVPs at each position

[cgjackson222]

Of the first 10 players to win MVP in consecutive years, all 9 positions were represented. Who are those 9 players and what position did the play during their back-to-back MVP seasons?

If my memory is correct Berra, Banks, Maris and Murphy were back to back winners.

I ask this question all the time. Though I phrase it "The first 9 players to win back to back MVP's represented all 9 positions (if you make outfield positions interchangeable)"

Ernie Banks was the first shortsop and Maris the first RF to win consecutive MVPs. But neither Berra nor Murphy were the first at their positions. (I am not using outfield positions interchangeably)
