Kevin Melillo is one of the most popular and richest Baseball Player who was born on May 14, 1982 in Orlando, Orlando, United States. Melillo was born on May 14, 1982, to Joanne and John Melillo in Orlando, Florida. He has an older sister, Shana. He attended Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs. He attended the University of South Carolina, where he played second base for four years (although he was redshirted his freshman year). In 2003, he was named to the Atlanta NCAA Regional All-Tournament team. In 2004, he was named to the Columbia NCAA Regional All-Tournament team.
In 2007, Melillo was promoted to Triple-A Sacramento River Cats. On June 24, 2007, he made his major league debut against the New York Mets, as a pinch hitter for pitcher Jay Marshall. Leading off the top of the eighth, Melillo reached on a walk, in his only major league plate appearance and game. (The next three A’s were set down in order, and Melillo did not advance to second.) Melillo thus became the fifth player in MLB history to accomplish this “feat”, the best-known of which is Eddie Gaedel. The next day, he was optioned back to Sacramento. He spent one month of the 2007 season (from July 3 to August 2) on the disabled list with a sprained left wrist.
On January 29, 2010, he signed as a free agent with the Pittsburgh Pirates and was converted to an outfielder.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim signed Melillo to a minor league contract with an invite to spring training on January 14, 2011. He played 46 games for the Angels triple-A affiliate in Salt Lake City, hitting .284, and thereafter retired from professional baseball.
Melillo was selected by the Oakland Athletics in the 5th round (157th overall) in the 2004 baseball draft.
