Elmer Lafayette "Bunny" Hearn (January 13, 1904 – March 31, 1974) was an American pitcher in Major League Baseball. He played for the Boston Braves.
Hearn was a successful semi-professional baseball player in New York City even in his early teens before attending Bushwick High School. He was nicknamed "Bunny" because of his diminutive size.
