James Edgar Lennox (November 3, 1883 in Camden, New Jersey – October 26, 1939 in Camden, New Jersey), was a professional baseball player who played third base from 1906 to 1915.

While playing for the Pittsburgh Rebels in 1914, Lennox hit for the cycle on May 6. becoming the only Federal League player to do so. He also hit pinch-hit home runs in consecutive games on June 10 and 11, a feat that was not accomplished again until Victor Martinez of the Detroit Tigers did so against the Florida Marlins on April 4 and 5, 2016.
