I have read Day's autobiography and she flatly denies an affair with Dogers player Maury Wills. My one impression after reading her book is that Day is not a liar. She was completely honest about all, even though it may have been contrary to her public image. There is no sense writing a book like this unless the writer is honest and truthful. Day was on all counts. If she denies an affair with Wills than you can bank on it.
As for Mickey Mantle, Day has refused to comment. If she was involved with Mantle, however briefly, it most certainly was a momentary lapse in judgement on her part. Mantle's comments referring to Day are disgusting and rude and reveal him as a womanizing jerk without an ounce of class.
Yes an affair with Mikey Mantle and a black Maury Wills.
The latter claims he did, but admits he can provide no evidence beyond his say-so.

Other than the claim of baseball star Maury Wills that the two had an affair -- a claim vigorously denied by Day and not supported by any evidence other than Wills' saying so -- there exists no evidence of Day romantically dating any black man. Stories of her dating Sly Stone are denied by all who knew them, and even by Sly himself.The only connection is that Sly worked with her adopted son, Terry Melcher; and sang a version of "Que Sera, Sera," a tune made famous by Day. Day had a nasty habit of getting involved with men who were completely wrong for her, but none of them seemed to be of African descent.
