Babe Ruth began his MLB career as a pitcher but moved to the outfield, primarily right field, when he proved how good of a hitter he was. He also played a few games at first base.

Babe Ruth started his Major League career as a pitcher with the Boston Red Sox and was primarily a pitcher for several seasons. Because of his hitting ability, the Red Sox moved him to the outfield where he was a regular in 1919. He was sold to the Yankees in 1920 and, although he pitched in a few games for the Yanks, the rest of his career he was primarily a right fielder although he played a few games as a first baseman.
