Henry Zeiher (August 11, 1862 – October 14, 1951) was a professional baseball player who played catcher in the Major Leagues for the 1886 Washington Nationals. Nicknamed "Whitey," he saw only 21 at-bats, striking out at 12 of those, and reaching base in just one via a walk. Defensively, during the 37 opportunities he was given to catch for the Nationals, he committed three errors and allowed 15 passed balls.[1]
He died in Philadelphia on October 14, 1951, and was interred at that city's Greenmount Cemetery.[2]
