When either Mickey Mantle or Roger Maris needs a day off, this outfielder out of Ole Miss has both the speed and throwing arm to be a reliable substitute. When Jack was added to the Yankees' World Series roster last year, he was an acceptable replacement for the injured Bob Cerv. Seeing action in three of the five games of New York's triumph over Cincinnati, he was a defensive replacement for Hector Lopez in Game 1, for Mantle in Game 3 and for Maris in Game 5.
