Harry Eisenstat (1915-2003) was a baseball player who played from 1935 to 1942 for the Brooklyn Dodgers, Detroit Tigers, and Cleveland Indians. He is best known for pitching for the Detroit Tigers when they beat Bob Feller of the Cleveland Indians on October 2, 1938 4-1 despite Feller setting the record for most strike outs in a game.

He enlisted in the Army in 1942, ending his career in major league baseball. After the war, he moved to Shaker Heights, Ohio and opened a hardware store.

In 1993, he was inducted into the Michigan Jewish Sports Hall of Fame. After his death in 2003, his papers were donated to the Western Reserve Historical Society in Cleveland, Ohio and are available to the serious scholar.
