Al Kaline was out for much of the season with a broken arm, but when he was in there it often looked like this:
1) 2B - Dick McAuliffe
2) 3B - Don Wert
3) RF - Al Kaline
4) LF - Willie Horton
5) 1B - Norm Cash
6) C - Bill Freehan
7) CF - Jim Northup
8) SS - Ray Oyler / Tommy Matchick / Dick Tracewski
9) Pitcher
Mickey Stanley also got a lot of time in the OF, especially after Kaline's injury.
Starting rotation, for good measure:
1) Denny McLain
2) Earl Wilson
3) Mickey Lolich
4) Joe Sparma
