Mickey Lee Tettleton (born September 16, 1960) is an American former professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball for the Oakland Athletics, Baltimore Orioles, Detroit Tigers, and Texas Rangers. Although Tettleton played mostly as a catcher, he also played as a first baseman, an outfielder, and as a designated hitter. A two-time All-Star, Tettleton was considered one of the best-hitting catchers of his era, winning three Silver Slugger Awards. His powerful hitting was highlighted when he became only the fifth player in major league history to hit two home runs over the right field roof of Tiger Stadium and, in 1992 he became the first player to hit a ball onto Eutaw Street which runs behind right field at Baltimore's Camden Yards. Tettleton is the manager for the collegiate summer team the Danville Otterbots and has coached college players since 2019.
