Edward E. Haigh (February 7, 1867 – February 13, 1953) was a 19th-century Major League Baseball outfielder. He played for the St. Louis Browns of the National League in 1892.

Haigh made his big league debut on August 14, 1892. Louisville's Courier Journal reported that Haigh "accidentally made a hit and it was a regular comedy to see him on the bases ... It is doubtful if Haigh could steal a base if he was alone in a ten-acre field." His release was reported in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat on August 16: "Capt. Gore and Mr. Von der Ahe do not consider him a good enough player for the big League."
