Baseball player’s outfit (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shortstop

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This might be a double definition.

'baseball player's' is the first definition.
(shortstop is a kind of baseball player)

'outfit' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how one could define the other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shortstop that I've seen before include "Opening move" , "Baseball player" , "position in American sport" , "Fielding position (baseball)" , "One in field" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
