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, then the second-highest total to 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 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. 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.
