If I HAD to win a game to save my life I'd go to war with these guys:

1B Frank Robinson*
2B Jackie Robinson
3B Brooks Robinson
SS Honus Wagner
OF Willie Mays
OF Roberto Clemente
OF Ty Cobb
C Yogi Berra
SP Bob Gibson
RP Bob Gibson (he can close for himself. nobody else is getting on that mound)

Bench Hank Aaron, Babe Ruth, & Pete Rose

*=Cheating a bit here but I'm playing Frank somewhere.

I remember a column many years ago by Detroit writer Joe Falls in which he said that if he could pick a team to win one game (or save his life, I'm not sure) that he's start with the three Robinsons and then let the other guy pick his nine. Or something along those lines. It has stuck with me after all this time.
