Andrew Neal Stankiewicz (Stanky) (born August 10, 1964) in Inglewood, California, United States is a retired Major League Baseball middle-infielder, and presently is the head coach of the Grand Canyon Antelopes baseball team. Stankiewicz also served as the minor league field coordinator for the Seattle Mariners from 2009 to 2012. In 2004 and 2005 he served as the manager of the Staten Island Yankees, the class A affiliate of the New York Yankees, whom he led to the 2005 NY-Penn League Championship.
Shorter than most major leaguers, at 5-9, and only 165 pounds, he went to St. Paul High School in Santa Fe Springs, California.
He is an alumnus of Pepperdine University, where he was a standout for the Waves baseball program and graduated in 1986 with a degree in sociology. He ranks in the top 10 in several Pepperdine career batting categories, and is 3rd on the school's all-time list in stolen bases (101).
In 11 seasons in the minor leagues, he played primarily shortstop and second base. In 1987 he hit .307 at Ft. Lauderdale, and in 1989 he stole 41 bases in 498 at bats at Albany.
Stankiewicz played for four different ballclubs during his career: the New York Yankees (1992–1993), Houston Astros (1994–1995), Montreal Expos (1996–1997), and Arizona Diamondbacks (1998).
He made his Major League Baseball debut on April 11, 1992, and played his final game on September 23, 1998.
