Juan Tyrone Eichelberger (born October 21, 1953) is an American former Major League Baseball pitcher.

A questionable umpiring call resulted in Scot Thompson being credited with a 2nd inning single on a ground ball that was not cleanly fielded by Tim Flannery.

[citation needed] Juan kept the Cubs hitless over the next 7 innings and ended up with a complete game 1 hitter.

[1] In 1982 he was traded by the Padres along with first baseman-outfielder Broderick Perkins to the Cleveland Indians for pitcher Ed Whitson.

Juan Eichelberger's son Jared followed his father into professional baseball, as a RHP originally drafted by the Chicago Cubs in 2001.
