Ralph George Houk (/ˈhaʊk/; August 9, 1919 – July 21, 2010), nicknamed The Major, was an American catcher, coach, manager, and front office executive in Major League Baseball.

He was the second rookie manager to win 100 games in a season and third rookie manager to win a World Series, doing each in 1961.
