Robinson Garcia Tejeda (born March 24, 1982, in Baní, Dominican Republic) is a Dominican former professional baseball pitcher. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Philadelphia Phillies, Texas Rangers and Kansas City Royals.

Tejeda was first signed as an amateur free agent by the Philadelphia Phillies on November 24, 1998. He made his professional debut the following year with the GCL Phillies. Tejeda spent the 2001, 2002, and 2003 seasons with the Single-A Lakewood BlueClaws and Clearwater Threshers before being promoted to the Double-A Reading Phillies in 2004.

In 2005, Tejeda made the jump to the major league club. Starting with his debut against the Milwaukee Brewers on May 10, 2005, he appeared in 26 games – half of those as a starter.

Tejeda was a former member of the Dominican Republic team in the 2006 World Baseball Classic. He only made two appearances during the tournament, a shutout inning against Australia and a rough ninth-inning appearance in the Dominican Republic's first game against Cuba.
