1967 Topps #435 Mack Jones
About Mack Jones
The 1967 set reports a 1966 season Jones began on the operating table: surgery the day before the opener, to take a nickel-sized bone chip out of his right shoulder, kept him out until May 14, and on May 20 he homered twice in his first game in Atlanta. He still finished with 23 home runs, a .264 average and 66 RBI in 118 games. Card #435 belongs to the set's fifth series.
Mack Jones was signed by the Milwaukee Braves in 1958 out of Atlanta amateur ball, and the left-handed-hitting, right-throwing outfielder reached the majors on July 13, 1961 at age 22, tying a modern National League record with four hits in his first game. He played for the Milwaukee and Atlanta Braves (1961-1967), the Cincinnati Reds (1968) and the Montreal Expos (1969-1971), mostly in center field and later in left. A .317, 39-homer season at Triple-A Syracuse in 1964 brought him back to a career-high 31 home runs in 1965. Taken by Montreal in the October 1968 expansion draft, he was an immediate favorite there, hitting the first home run struck in a major-league regular-season game in Canada and lending his name to the left-field bleachers at Jarry Park that fans called Jonesville. Nicknamed Mack the Knife after the 1959 Bobby Darin hit, he closed ten major-league seasons at .252 with 133 home runs and 415 RBI, and was inducted into the International League Hall of Fame in 2013.
