Walter Scott "Steve" Brodie (September 11, 1868 – October 30, 1935) was an American professional baseball center fielder.

In 1887, Brodie moved to Roanoke, Virginia, where he played in the semiprofessional industrial leagues.

[1] Brodie took on the nickname Steve because of the daredevil of the same name, who was said to have survived a jump off of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Teammates and fans were sometimes taken aback when he recited Shakespearean verse during games or carried on conversations with himself in the outfield.

The YMCA sent him to France to facilitate recreation programs for U.S. soldiers in World War I.
