Irvin Castille (May 17, 1926^[1] – August 4, 2015^[2]) was a shortstop and third baseman who played from 1951 through 1953 in the Negro American League. Born in Lafayette, Louisiana,^[3] he batted and threw right handed.

Castille joined the Birmingham Black Barons in the dying years of the Negro leagues.^[4] He also was selected to the East–West All-Star Game in 1953.^[5] In between, he played with the Brandon Greys club of the independent Mandak League in its 1952 season.^[6][7]

On June 8, 2008, Major League Baseball staged a special draft of the surviving Negro league players, doing a tribute for the surviving Negro leaguers who were kept out of the Big Leagues because of their race. MLB clubs each selected a former NLB player, as Castille was drafted by the Oakland Athletics.^[8]

A week later, the San Diego Padres honored him during a homestand highlighted by a Salute to the Negro leagues, fireworks and U.S. Army Appreciation Day at Petco Park.^[9] Late in the month, he signed autographs and shared stories about his playing days in the Times of Greatness Mobile event held at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.^[8]

Castille was a long resident of Whittier, California,^[3] where he died in 2015 at the age of 83.^[2]
