Steve Barber played in portions of two seasons for the Minnesota Twins. Barber attended the University of Arizona and was signed as an undrafted free-agent by the Twins before the 1969 season.

Barber appeared in 18 games for the 1970 Twins, all in relief, finishing ten. He was credited with two saves, his first coming in his major league debut on April 9 at Chicago against the Chicago White Sox. He saw action in four games for the 1971 Twins, starting twice.
