Edward Russell Hobaugh (born June 27, 1934) is an American former professional baseball player.

Hobaugh signed with the Chicago White Sox in 1956, and threw a no-hitter in the Class B Three-I League during his first professional season.

After toiling at the Triple-A level for the ChiSox in 1959–1960, he was selected by the Washington Senators in the 12th round of the 1960 MLB expansion draft.

Hobaugh spent the full season of 1961 and parts of 1962–1963 as a member of the Washington major-league pitching staff.

Although he lasted only 2+2⁄3 innings in his maiden start, Hobaugh recovered to pitch effectively and hold a spot in Washington's rotation through late July, winning six of 11 decisions and hurling three complete games.
