Joseph Vincent Rullo (June 16, 1916 – October 28, 1969) was a professional baseball player.

Rullo attended South Philadelphia High School where he was not selected for the school's baseball team because he was too small. He nonetheless earned a professional contract on the strength of his play in sandlot ball.[1]

He was a second baseman over parts of two seasons (1943–44) with the Philadelphia Athletics. For his career, he compiled a .212 batting average in 151 at-bats, with 11 runs batted in.

After his playing career ended, he spent several seasons as a minor league manager.[1]

He was born in New York City and died in Philadelphia at the age of 53.
