Jesús Manuel Marcano (Manny) Trillo (born December 25, 1950 in Caripito, Venezuela), also nicknamed "Indio", is a former Major League Baseball second baseman and shortstop who played for the Oakland Athletics (1973–74), Chicago Cubs (1975–78, 1986–88), Philadelphia Phillies (1979–82), Cleveland Indians (1983), Montreal Expos (1983), San Francisco Giants (1984–85) and Cincinnati Reds (1989). He is currently the infield instructor for the Chicago White Sox.
Originally signed as a catcher by the Phillies in 1968, he started his Major League career with Oakland on June 28, 1973. After being traded with two other players in exchange for Billy Williams, he was the Cubs' regular second baseman for four seasons before returning to Philadelphia in an 8-player trade. Trillo batted a career-high .292 for the 1980 World Series-winning Phillies, and was named MVP of the National League Championship Series when he hit .381 with four runs batted in against the Houston Astros. Trillo won his third Gold Glove Award in 1982, when he set a since-broken major-league record for consecutive errorless chances at second base (479), falling two games short of Joe Morgan's record 91-game errorless streak.
A four-time All-Star, Trillo batted .263 in his career.
