Emile Michael Meola (October 19, 1905 – September 1, 1976) was a pitcher in Major League Baseball who played between the 1933 and 1936 seasons. Listed at 5 ft 11 in (1.80 m), 175 lb., Meola batted and threw right-handed. He was born in New York City.

Meola started his baseball career in 1928 with the Chambersburg Maroons of the Class D Blue Ridge League. He pitched six years in the minor leagues before joining the Boston Red Sox in 1933.

In 1934, Meola enjoyed one of the best seasons ever for a pitcher in minor league history, after going 20–5 with a 2.90 ERA for the Los Angeles Angels of the Pacific Coast League. The next year he finished with a 19–8 mark. He divided his playing time between the St. Louis Browns and Boston Red Sox in 1936, his last major league season.

Following his baseball retirement in 1939, he worked as a demolition contractor in New York.

A resident of Fair Lawn, New Jersey, Meola died there at age 70.^[1]
