Your right. I was using an extreme example. A lot of players also played infield positions like ss/2b, pitched and caught, etc. An example would be King Kelly, who also liked to slide as well.
The vast majority of OOTP gamers replay/create seasons after the 19th century though.( maybe all of them?)
