Henry P. Easterday (September 16, 1864 – March 30, 1895) was a professional baseball player. He played all or part of four seasons in Major League Baseball between 1884 and 1890, primarily as a shortstop.

Easterday began his career with the Philadelphia Keystones of the Union Association during the 1884 season. When the league folded he played in the Southern League in 1885, the Eastern League in 1886 and the International Association in 1887 before rejoining the Major Leagues with the Kansas City Cowboys of the American Association in 1888. He remained in the AA through 1890 with the Columbus Solons, Philadelphia Athletics and Louisville Colonels. He remained active in the minor leagues until his early death in 1895.
