Harold Philip "Steve" Partenheimer (August 30, 1891 – June 16, 1971) was a Major League Baseball player who played one game (also known as a cup of coffee) with the Detroit Tigers on June 28, 1913.

Born in Greenfield, Massachusetts, he attended Amherst College for four years varsity and senior captain (1909–13). He signed with the Detroit Tigers out of college. In his one and only Major League game, Partenheimer played third base, collected 3 assists, and committed 1 error. At bat, he was hit by a pitch, but failed to register a hit, in 3 plate appearances.

After his "stint" with the Tigers, Partenheimer played three years in New York State League before becoming a coach. He formed Gordon Drug Aces B team in Akron in 1933 as a sponsor and manager and also worked with Akron Jays, Sohio A.C. and the Killian Celtics. He was elected to the all time 100 year Amherst-Williams Baseball Team. [1]

Roughly 30 years after Steve Partenheimer's first and last Major League appearance, his son Stan Partenheimer also came up to the Major Leagues for a quick cup of coffee as a pitcher in 1944 with the Boston Red Sox, followed by 9 games with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1945.

Steve Partenheimer died in 1971 at age 79 in Mansfield, Ohio. He was buried at Green River Cemetery in Greenfield, Massachusetts, and was posthumously inducted into the Greater Akron Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991. [2]
