I take it to mean players I’d like to watch for one game - the most entertaining…
Pitcher: Mark Fidrych (for one year he was pure joy to watch)
Reliever: Goose Gossage (the Pete Townshend of relievers - don’t mess with him when he’s on stage or he might just kill you)
Catcher: Mickey Cochrane (won 5 pennants in 13-year career. "He was the greatest fighting spirit on the ball field." He's there to win and will do anything to make it happen.)
1st Base: Norm Cash (once went to bat with a table leg against Nolan Ryan and could hit the ball over the roof at Tiger Stadium)
2nd Base: Germany Schaefer (Schaefer was a pioneer of baseball clowning and is the reason you can’t steal bases backwards)
3rd base: Pete Rose (Another winner, complete with head-first slides)
Left Field: Babe Ruth (he played LF almost as much as RF and of course is baseball)
Center Field: Ty Cobb (who could be more fun to watch)
Right Field: Reggie Jackson (the straw that stirs the drink)
Manager: Billy Martin (who’s gonna kick dirt on the umpire any quicker? And he might even fight Reggie by the 5th inning.)
