Peter Mackanin, Jr. (pronounced /ˈmɑːkænɪn/) (born August 1, 1951) is an American former professional baseball player, coach, scout and current team manager. He played in Major League Baseball as a second baseman from 1973 to 1981 and, served as the acting manager of the Cincinnati Reds, having replaced Jerry Narron in 2007 before being replaced at season's end by Dusty Baker.

Mackanin spent 2013 as a scout for the New York Yankees, and was the Philadelphia Phillies' bench coach from 2009 to 2012. Following a year off from coaching, he served as Phillies third base coach in 2014 and became interim manager in 2015 after the resignation of Ryne Sandberg. The Phillies later announced they were removing the interim label and Mackanin would serve as the team's manager in 2016.

Mackanin was drafted by the Washington Senators in the 1969 Major League Baseball Draft and made his debut with them in 1973, after they moved and became the Texas Rangers. In a nine-year major league career, he also played for the Montreal Expos, Philadelphia Phillies, and Minnesota Twins. Mackanin's best season offensively was in 1975 when he posted a .225 batting average along with 12 home runs and 44 runs batted in.
