Eustace James Newton (October 26, 1877 – May 14, 1931) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher from Indianapolis, Indiana who played for several teams in both the National League and American League. A former Dentist, he finished with a 54–72 win-loss record, a 3.22 Earned Run Average, and 99 complete games. He had his best season in 1902 for Brooklyn, when he went 15-14 with a 2.42 ERA. From an article in the Sporting Life magazine from April 1907, he played college baseball for Morris Hall University, while others claim Morris Halo, or Morris Hale. The most likely match is Moores Hill College, a school that closed in 1915.

Doc began his Major League career in 1900 when he played for the Cincinnati Reds. He was in the regular pitching rotation that first season, but finished with a 9–15 win–loss record, and 4.14 ERA. The 1901 season wasn't much better for Newton, as he began the same effectiveness as the previous season. After 20 games, his win-loss record was 4-13, and his ERA was 4.12. The Reds decided to release him from the team on July 13 of that season, and he was signed by the Brooklyn Superbas three days later. Newton set the single-season NL record for errors by a pitcher (since 1900) with 17 for Cincinnati and Brooklyn in 1901.

With this new scenery, he pitched well to finish off that 1901 season, winning six games, and keeping his ERA a low 2.83. The 1902 season, still with Brooklyn, proved to be his best Major League season, as he had a 15-14 win-loss record, a 2.42 ERA, along with 26 complete games, and four shutouts.
