Thomas Henry Bond (April 2, 1856 – January 24, 1941) was a 19th century major league baseball pitcher. A native of Granard, Ireland, he lived to be the last survivor of the National League's first season (1876).

Bond played for the Brooklyn Atlantics (1874), Hartford Dark Blues (1875-1876), Boston Red Caps (1877-1881), Worcester Ruby Legs (1882), Boston Reds (1884), and Indianapolis Hoosiers (1884).

In 1877 he was the winner of baseball's first pitching Triple Crown, leading the National League in wins (40), earned run average (2.11), and strikeouts (170).

During his ten-season career, he was a three-time 40-game winner, played for two National League pennant-winning clubs, and regularly finished in the top ten in many pitching categories.

His career statistics include a record of 234-163, 386 complete games in 408 starts, 42 shutouts, and an ERA of 2.31.

Bond also played 92 games in the outfield, a few more in the infield, and batted .238 with 174 RBI and 213 runs scored.
