Albert Sayles "Hobe" Ferris (December 7, 1874 – March 18, 1938) was an English born major league second baseman during the 1900s.

The following season, he cut his error total to 39 and began to acquire a reputation as a stellar fielder with outstanding range.

Ferris hit only .213 that season, and the team fell down the standings over the next years as its star players began to show their age.

Ferris was one of the team's few bright spots, playing excellent defense and ranking among American League leaders in extra base hits.

Prior to the 1908 season Ferris was traded to the St. Louis Browns in order to clear space for Amby McConnell, who was highly rated at the time.

His first season with the Browns was the most productive of his entire career: he set new highs in OBP, batting average, and RBI and hit in 26 straight games.

In 1911 he hit 14 home runs and recorded an average of .303 as the Millers won their second consecutive pennant with a team that included Gavvy Cravath, Sam Leever and future Hall of Famer Rube Waddell.
