Jim Command, American baseball player and scout (b. 1928)

James Dalton Command (October 15, 1928 – August 10, 2014) 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 (1947–1959; 1962) minor league career – playing all the infield positions, the outfield, and, late in his career, converting to catcher.
