Jack Edward DiLauro (born May 3, 1943 in Akron, Ohio) is a former Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the 1969 World Series Champion New York Mets.

DiLauro started his professional baseball career by signing with the Detroit Tigers as an amateur free agent on January 1, 1963.cite web|title=Baseball Reference Jack DiLauro|url=http://www.baseball-reference.com/d/dilauja01.shtml|accessdate=2008-08-20] cite web|title=Baseball Cube Jack DiLauro|url=http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/D/Jack-Dilauro.shtml|accessdate-2008-08-20] He never played in the Major Leagues for the Tigers. On December 4, 1968 he was traded to the New York Mets in exchange for Hector Valle.

In 1969, DiLauro pitched 4 games for the Mets AAA minor league affiliate, the Tidewater Tides. [cite web|title=Ultimate Mets Jack DiLauro Minors|url=http://www.ultimatemets.com/profile.php?PlayerCode=0168&tabno=1&subtab=m|accessdate=2008-08-20] He was then promoted to the Mets and made his major league debut for the Mets on May 15, 1969 against the Atlanta Braves.cite web|title=Ultimate Mets Jack DiLauro Game by Game|url=http://www.ultimatemets.com/profile.php?tabno=4&PlayerCode=0168|accessdate=2008-08-20] In 1969, he pitched in 23 games, mostly in relief, and 63 2/3 innings for the Mets. He won 1 game against 4 losses with 1 save. The win, his first in the Major Leagues occurred on July 20 against the Montreal Expos. His ERA in 1969 was a solid 2.40, better than league average. The Mets won the World Series in 1969, [cite web|title=Baseball Reference 1969 New York Mets|url=http://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/NYM/1969.shtml|accessdate=2008-08-20] but DiLauro did not pitch in the postseason.

After the season, DiLauro was drafted from the Mets by the Houston Astros in the Rule 5 Draft. In 1970 DiLauro pitched in 42 games for the Astros, all in relief, pitching 33 2/3 innings. He had 1 win and 3 losses with 3 saves.

He was sold to by the Astros the Hawaii Islanders, the San Diego Padres AAA team in the Pacific Coast League on March 15, 1971. [1971 Jack DiLauro Topps Baseball Card {#677}] In July 1971 he was traded with Hank McGraw (brother of DiLauro's former Mets teammate Tug McGraw) to the Atlanta Braves organization for Marv Staehle. [cite web|title=Baseball Reference Bullpen Hank McGraw|url=http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/Hank_McGraw|accessdate=2008-08-20] But he never pitched in the major leagues after 1970.

As of August 23, 2008 DiLauro's Mets ERA of 2.40 is 3rd best all-time among Mets pitchers with at least 50 innings pitched for the team, behind only Carlos Diaz and Billy Wagner.
