Celerino (Perez) Sanchez (February 3, 1944 in El Guayabal, Veracruz de Ignacio de la Llave, Mexico - May 1, 1992 in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico) was a former Major League baseball third baseman. He was known primarily as an excellent fielder.

Sanchez starred as a baseball player in the Mexican League from 1964 to 1971, primarily with the Mexico City Tigers before joining the New York Yankees organization in 1972. After spending a few months in the Yankees minor league affiliate in Syracuse, Sanchez joined the Yankees on June, 1972, and was the Yankees regular third baseman for the rest of the year. In 1973, the Yankees' acquisition of star third baseman Graig Nettles relegated to a backup role. 1973 was Sanchez' final year in the Major Leagues. He returned to the Mexican Leagues in 1974, where he played for several more years.Fact|date=September 2008
