Harold Schacker (April 6, 1925 – October 2, 2015) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who appeared in six games, all in relief, for the Boston Braves in 1945. At the age of 20, the 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m), 190 lb (86 kg) right-hander was the tenth-youngest player to appear in a National League game that season. He was born in Brooklyn, New York.[1]

He made his major league debut on May 9, 1945 against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Braves Field, with his final appearance on June 14. In a total of 151⁄3 innings pitched he was 0–1 with 3 games finished, struck out 6, and walked 9. He gave up 12 runs (9 earned), giving him an ERA of 5.28.
