Michael Anthony Gallego (born October 31, 1960 in Whittier, California) was a Major League Baseball infielder.
Mike's career lasted from 1985 to 1997. Mike played for the Oakland Athletics, New York Yankees, and St. Louis Cardinals. He made his major league debut on April 11, 1985 for the Oakland Athletics, and played his final game July 23, 1997 for the St. Louis Cardinals.
