Daniel J. Lally (August 12, 1867 – April 14, 1936), was a Major League Baseball outfielder. He played for the 1891 Pittsburgh Pirates and 1897 St. Louis Browns of the National League. In addition to his two brief appearances in the Majors, he had an extensive minor league baseball career that lasted from 1887 through 1905.

He is sometimes confused with John Lally who was an umpire in the South Atlantic League in 1907, but there is no record that Dan ever served as an umpire. Dan spent most of his later years in various institutions, including the Wisconsin State Asylum.{{cite web |last1=Bohn |first1=Terry |title=Dan Lally biography |url=https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/dan-lally/ |website=SABR |publisher=SABR |access-date=18 January 2025}}{{Cite web|url=http://almanacpark.blogspot.com/2008/09/lally-and-marion-gravestones-in-place.html|title=Lally and Marion Gravestones in Place}}
