Jeffrey Wilton Calhoun (born April 11, 1958 in LaGrange, Georgia) is a retired professional baseball player who pitched in the major leagues from 1984 to 1988. In Game 6 of the 1986 NLCS against the New York Mets, he unleashed two wild pitches, a walk, and an R.B.I. single as the Astros lost 7–6 in the longest postseason baseball game ever played at the time.[1]

On April 7, 1987, Jeff was traded to Philadelphia from Houston for C Ronn Reynolds.
