Charles Michael "Mickey" Harrington (October 8, 1934 – September 20, 2017) was a Major League Baseball (MLB) player who played in 1963 with the Philadelphia Phillies.

Although Harrington played in only one MLB game, being used as a pinch-runner,[1] his professional career spanned 1957–66 in minor league action.[2] On July 10, 1963, he was called upon to pinch run following Roy Sievers' single, advancing to second base one out later following Don Hoak's single. The inning ended as Clay Dalrymple grounded into a double play.[3]

Harrington died on September 20, 2017 in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.[4]
