Fermin Alexis Infante Carpio [in-FAHN-tay], born Fermin Alexis Infante Carpio (December 4, 1961), is a former Major League Baseball infielder.

Infante was born in Barquisimeto, Lara State, Venezuela. He played for the Toronto Blue Jays (1987–89) and Atlanta Braves (1990). He batted and threw right-handed.

In the 1980s, Toronto called Infante the best defensive shortstop in the American League next to Chicago's Ozzie Guillén. Infante had an exceptional range and enough arm to make the throw from the hole, but he was unable to help himself with the bat.

In a four-season career, Infante was mostly used as a late-inning defense replacement or as a pinch runner. He posted a .109 batting average with 11 runs scored in 60 games.
