Raymond Lawrence Perry (December 23, 1919 – May 3, 1973) was an American professional baseball player, manager and scout.

Primarily a third baseman, he started his professional baseball career in 1940 with the Salt Lake City Bees of the class C Pioneer League.

In 1941, he spent most of the season with the Tacoma Tigers of the class B Western International League and batted .313 with 12 home runs and 88 RBI.

[2] In 1948, Perry returned to professional baseball as a player-manager with the Redding Browns of the class D Far West League.

He led the league in all three triple crown categories with a .411 batting average, 36 home runs, and 163 RBI.

He finished his professional baseball playing career with a .323 batting average, 348 home runs, and 1,609 RBI.

In his 2001 book The New Bill James Historical Baseball Abstract, Bill James noted that Perry missed four seasons early in his career due to a war and an injury, which hurt his chances of making the major leagues.
