Héctor Headley López Swainson (July 8, 1929 – September 2022) was a Panamanian professional baseball left fielder and third baseman who played in Major League Baseball for the Kansas City Athletics and New York Yankees from 1955 to 1966. He was the first black manager at the Triple-A baseball level, the third outfielder on the Maris/Mantle Yankees, and the Kansas City Athletics franchise hitting streak record holder. López was on World Series Championship teams for the Yankees in 1961 and 1962. In various seasons, he finished among the top 10 American League hitters in hits, runs batted in, runs scored, doubles, triples, slugging percentage, sacrifice flies, sacrifice hits, games played, times hit by pitch, and at bats. He was also known for his hustle, his clutch hitting, and poor fielding.
