Lonas Edgar Bailey, Jr. (b: April 15, 1931 – d: March 23, 2007 at age 75) was a professional baseball player. He played as a catcher in MLB from 1953 through 1966. A six-time All-Star, Bailey was one of the top catchers in the National League in the late 1950's and early 1960's.

In 1962, Bailey platooned with catcher Tom Haller, as the two players combined to give the Giants 35 home runs and 100 RBI from the catcher's position. In June of that year, Bailey had a streak of 3 clutch home runs in four games that propelled the Giants into first place. The Giants battled the Los Angeles Dodgers in a tight pennant race as the two teams ended the season tied for first place and met in the 1962 National League tie-breaker series. The Giants won the three-game series to clinch the National League championship.

In a 14 season major league career, Bailey played in 1,212 games with 915 hits in 3,581 at bats for a .256 batting average along with 155 home runs and 540 RBI, including 423 runs, a .355 on-base percentage and a .986 fielding percentage.
