Glen David "Rip" Russell (January 26, 1915 – September 26, 1976) was an American infielder in Major League Baseball, playing mainly as a first baseman for two different teams between the 1939 and 1947 seasons.

Basically a line-drive hitter and a good fielding replacement, Russell entered the majors in 1939 with the Chicago Cubs, playing for them four years (1939–42) before joining the Boston Red Sox (1946–47).

Russell was a member of the 1946 AL champion Red Sox, appearing in 80 games and making 64 starts at third base before losing his regular job to Pinky Higgins because of poor offensive production (.208 in 274 at bats).

He started a Red Sox rally in the eighth inning of Game 7 with a lead-off single off Murry Dickson of the St. Louis Cardinals, then scored Boston's second run of the contest.

The Bosox were able to tie the game at 3–3, but the Cardinals bounced back in their half of the eighth, scoring the Series-clinching run on Slaughter's Mad Dash.
