Charles Dewayne Hayes (born May 29, 1965) is an American former professional baseball third baseman and former coach for the FCL Phillies.

Hayes played in Major League Baseball for the San Francisco Giants, Philadelphia Phillies, New York Yankees, Colorado Rockies, Pittsburgh Pirates, Milwaukee Brewers, and Houston Astros from 1988 through 2001.

Hayes played for the South Region champions (Hub City from Hattiesburg, Mississippi) in the first round of the 1977 Little League World Series.

[2] The San Francisco Giants selected Hayes in the fourth round of the 1983 Major League Baseball (MLB) draft.

On June 18, 1989, the Giants traded Hayes with Dennis Cook and Terry Mulholland to the Philadelphia Phillies for Steve Bedrosian and a player to be named later, who turned out to be Rick Parker.

[3] Hayes later redeemed himself, however, by snaring Gary Carter's line drive for the final out of the 9th inning and thus preserving Mulholland's no-hitter.

On August 30, 1996, the Pirates traded Hayes to the New York Yankees for a player to be named later, later choosing Chris Corn.

Hayes played in five of the six games in the 1996 World Series against the Atlanta Braves, collecting three hits and one run batted in, along with five strikeouts.

[6] Hayes scored the only run for either team in Game 5 of the series, crossing home plate in the top of the 4th inning via a double by Cecil Fielder.

[6] Hayes signed with the Houston Astros for the 2001 season, but collected just 10 hits over 31 games (a .200 average) and was released on July 9.
