Joseph Mikulik (/ˈmɪkəlɪk/ MIK-ə-lik[1]), born October 30, 1963, in Weimar, Texas,[2] is the current bench coach for the Spokane Indians Baseball Club.

The 5' 11" right-handed batting outfielder never rose above AAA baseball, but was a key player in the Tucson Toros' first Pacific Coast League championship in 1991.

After an All-American sophomore season, Texas A&M offered him a two-year scholarship, which he declined when he was selected by the Houston Astros in the ninth round of the 1984 amateur draft.

Afterward, Mikulik was unapologetic, claiming he "could get two mannequins at Sears" to "umpire better than what I saw this whole series" while receiving a seven-day suspension and a $1,000 fine.

His antics were shown on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Pardon the Interruption, SportsCenter, and Countdown with Keith Olbermann.

On July 27, 2012, in the bottom of the first inning of a game against the Charleston RiverDogs, Mikulik came out of the dugout to dispute a call that a baserunner had eluded a tag.

[13] Managing the Myrtle Beach Pelicans on August 17, 2014, Mikulik had a widely-reported meltdown where he responded to getting ejected by removing some of his clothing on the field.
