Abner Frank Dalrymple (September 9 1857 - January 25 1939) was an American left fielder in Major League Baseball who hit 43 home runs (including 22 in 1884, the second-highest total to that date) and batted .288 during his 12-season career spent primarily with the Chicago White Stockings, for whom he starred as the leadoff hitter on five National League pennant winners. Born in Gratiot, Wisconsin, he played for the Milwaukee Grays, White Stockings, Pittsburgh Alleghenys, and Milwaukee Brewers.

In 1881, he was given an intentional walk with the bases loaded; the first batter to accomplish that honor.In 1884, he catapulted into sixth place on the all-time home run list. On the strength of 11 HR for the 1885 champions, he moved up one place; his power threat made him the first hitter to be intentionally walked with the bases loaded. He hit just 3 home runs the next two years, however, and he held 10th on the all-time list. He fell from the top ten the next year.

Dalrymple died in Warren, Illinois at age 81.
