Joseph Francis Giannini (September 8, 1888 – September 26, 1942) was a shortstop in Major League Baseball who played briefly for the Boston Red Sox during the 1911 season.
Listed at 5 ft 8 in (1.73 m), 155 lb., Giannini batted left-handed and threw right-handed.
A native of Drytown, California, he was signed by Boston out of the University of San Francisco. Giannini was a major leaguer whose career, statistically speaking, was only slightly different from that of Eddie Gaedel or Moonlight Graham.
