Cowan "Bubba" Hyde (April 10, 1909 – November 20, 2003) was an American professional outfielder who played mostly in the Negro leagues from the 1920s to the 1950s. In his baseball career, Hyde played with the Memphis Red Sox, Birmingham Black Barons, Indianapolis Athletics, and the Cincinnati Tigers, as well as various teams from other leagues.
