Jack Eugene “Jackie” Jensen (1927–1982) was a highly celebrated athlete—known as the “Golden Boy”—who was the American League’s Most Valuable Player in 1958. He played right field for 11 seasons, primarily known for his time with the Boston Red Sox.
Jensen was a rare two-sport superstar, distinguishing himself in both baseball and football at the University of California, Berkeley. He was an All-American halfback who played in the 1949 Rose Bowl. Jensen is the first person to have played in the Rose Bowl, the World Series, and the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. He was a three-time All-Star (1952, 1955, 1958). He won the AL Gold Glove Award for right field in 1959, showcasing his strong throwing arm.
He retired suddenly after the 1959 season, then made a brief comeback in 1961, before ultimately retiring for good at the age of 34.
