Overview

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia · Read full article · Text CC BY-SA 4.0

James Dalton Command was an American professional baseball player and scout. He had two separate trials with the 1954–55 Philadelphia Phillies of Major League Baseball (MLB), starting four games as a third baseman in July 1954, while also serving as a pinch hitter and pinch runner, playing in a total of 14 big league games. However, Command was a versatile performer during a 14-season minor league career – playing all the infield positions, the outfield, and, late in his career, converting to catcher.
