Eleutero Benjamin "Angelo" Encarnación (born April 18, 1969) is a former professional baseball player who played three seasons for the Pittsburgh Pirates and Anaheim Angels of Major League Baseball.

[1] Encarnacion entered the game in the top of the eleventh inning with the score tied at 10–10, as a pinch runner for the Pirates' starting catcher, Mark Parent.

Later that inning, with one out and Roberto Kelly on third base, Encarnacion casually scooped up a bouncing ball with his face mask.

[1] This was a violation of MLB's rarely invoked Rule 7.05 (d), which allows runners on base to advance under that circumstance, permitting Kelly to score the game-winning run uncontested.
