C - Roger Bresnahan
1B - Frank Chance
2B - Nap Lajoie (or Eddie Collins…take your pick)
SS - Honus Wagner
3B - Home Run Baker
OF - Ty Cobb
OF - Tris Speaker (replaced by Ruth if you aren’t getting too technical about the position in front)
OF - Shoeless Joe Jackson
Along the same line of thinking is the Collins-McCarthy set (E135) which would allow for Hornsby to sneak in as 1st B (as listed on the card) but you still have the problem of Ruth listed as a pitcher.

with Collins McCarthy, you not only get Hornsby at 2b but also Sisler at first.
and I have no problem with using the Babe in the outfield --we can't let the position listed on the front of the card rule our lives.
