The Phillies once had a lefty shortstop named Bill Hulen, so it has happened. It almost never happens though.

Yes, there have been left-handed shortstops in Major League Baseball, although they are rare. One notable example is Dick McAuliffe, who played shortstop part-time for the Detroit Tigers in the 1960s. However, due to the unique challenges of playing shortstop as a lefty, it is more common for left-handed players to be shifted to other positions.
