Walter George "Jumbo" Brown (April 30, 1907 – October 2, 1966) was a right-handed Major League Baseball relief pitcher, one of the first to play that position exclusively. During his career he went 33–31 with 29 saves (leading the league two times in that category) and a 4.07 ERA. He is known mostly for his large size, weighing 295 pounds (134 kg) during his playing days. Until Walter Young, he was the heaviest player to ever play in the Major Leagues.
