Reinaldo Antonio Stennett Porte (April 5, 1949 – May 18, 2021) was a Panamanian professional baseball second baseman, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Pittsburgh Pirates (1971–79) and San Francisco Giants (1980–81). He batted and threw right-handed. A World Series champion with the Pirates in 1979, Stennett is one of two players (with Wilbert Robinson) to collect seven hits in a nine-inning game, which he did in a 22–0 victory over the Chicago Cubs in 1975. Stennett was also a member of the first all-Black and Latino starting lineup in big league history.
