Stephen Blair Stanicek (born June 19, 1961) is an American former Major League Baseball player.
In a Sept. 16 game at Yankee Stadium, with the visiting Brewers trailing in the seventh inning, Steve Stanicek came to bat for the first time, pinch-hitting.
He reached safely against Yankee pitcher Tommy John on an error, and Milwaukee rallied for three runs in the inning and a 5-4 victory.
He was a pinch-hitter again, this time in the ninth inning of a game at Tiger Stadium in Detroit that the Brewers were losing 7-1.
After a two-run Dale Sveum home run, Stanicek was sent up against Willie Hernández with a teammate on base and delivered a single.
