OK for MLB you have to have Williams and Kiner, so either Hodges or Ashburn would have to go

1B- Hodges
2B- Jackie Robinson
SS- Dark
3B- Kell
OF- Musial
OF- Kiner
OF- Ted Williams
C- Campanella
P- Maglie

or

1B- Musial
2B- Jackie Robinson
SS- Dark
3B- Kell
OF- Ashburn
OF- Kiner
OF- Ted Williams
C- Campanella
P- Maglie

What do you guys think of Ed Yost?

YOST OPS .847
KELL OPS .786
They tied for league lead in doubles
Each had 11 SH--which was valued in the day

YOST 109 runs
KELL 92 runs

Yost out-homered Kell 12/2 and drove in more runs
Yost led league in games played as well

KELL batted .319
YOST batted .283

Defensively; Statistically, Kell was a tick better, but they're a wash on paper.

In my above post, I was under the impression that you wanted only a National League line-up.
Anyhow, here is my NL and AL line-ups played in an AL Stadium (I took the liberty of including
the DH batter....even though it was not in effect in 1951).
I'm fortunate to have seen all these guys play (either live at the three NYC Ballparks or on TV).


DH - Ashburn (one of the greatest lead-off batters)
2B - Jackie Robinson
OF - Musial
OF - Snider
1B - Hodges
OF - Kiner
SS - Reese
3B - Thomson
C -- Campanella
P -- Preacher Roe (1951 W-L = 22 - 3)


SS - Rizzuto (one of the greatest lead-off batters), 1950 AL MVP
RF - Minoso
LF - Ted Williams
CF - Joe DiMaggio
1B - Mize
C -- Berra
3B - Kell
DH - Eddie Robinson
2B - Nellie Fox
P -- Feller (1951 W-L = 22 - 8)
