Robert Burnette "Bob" Adams (July 24, 1901 – October 17, 1996) was an American professional baseball right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball. He was born in Holyoke, Massachusetts and attended Lehigh University.[1] At Lehigh, he played both football and baseball.[2]

Adams appeared in two games with the Boston Red Sox in the 1925 season. He debuted on September 22, 1925. A day later, he played his final game.[2]

In five 2/3 innings pitched, Adams came out of the bullpen and got no decisions, allowing five earned runs (7.94) and giving up 10 hits with one strikeout and three walks. As a hitter, he went 1-for-3 with one run scored.[3]

From the 1929 season through the 1937 season, Adams coached the Lehigh Engineers baseball program at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. He also worked as an assistant coach with the school's football program.[2]

Adams died in Lemoyne, Pennsylvania, at the age of 95.[1]
