Johnny Antonelli was a professional baseball player who played for several teams during his career. Born in Rochester, New York, in 1930, Antonelli began his professional baseball career with the Boston Braves at the age of 18. He played for them for two years before he was drafted by the US Army to serve in the Korean War. After his military service, Antonelli joined the New York Giants in 1954, and it was here that he became a key player, helping the team to win the National League pennant in 1954.
Antonelli's baseball career continued to flourish, and he played for the Milwaukee Braves for two years before joining the San Francisco Giants in 1958. It was here that Antonelli had his best season, with a record of 21-7, and he helped the team to win another National League pennant in 1962. Antonelli continued to play for the Giants until 1961, after which he spent one season with the Cleveland Indians before finishing his career with the expansion New York Mets in 1964.

In recognition of his achievements, Antonelli was inducted into the Rochester Red Wings Hall of Fame in 1997, and he remained an influential figure in the world of baseball until his death in 2020.
