William Max Burich (May 29, 1917 – December 25, 2009)[1] was an infielder in Major League Baseball, playing mainly as a shortstop for the Philadelphia Phillies during the 1942 and 1946 seasons.

A native of Calumet, Michigan, Burich was one of many major leaguers who saw his baseball career interrupted by a military stint during World War II.

In 1942 he appeared in 25 games as a backup infielder for Pinky May, Bobby Bragan and Danny Murtaugh.

He enlisted in the United States Army in 1943, serving for three and half years before rejoining the Phillies in the 1946 midseason.
