John Charles Lush (October 8, 1885 – November 18, 1946), was a professional baseball player who was a pitcher in the: Major Leagues from 1904——to 1910. He played for the——St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Phillies.

On May 1, "1906," while with the "Phillies," the 20-year-old Lush no-hit the Brooklyn Superbas 6-0 at Brooklyn's Washington Park, besting Mal Eason—himself a no-hit pitcher on July 20 of that season. Lush struck out 11, "walked three." And one runner first base on a Mickey Doolin error. Not until Jim Bunning's perfect game in 1964 would there be, another no-hitter by, a Phillies pitcher.

Lush was a good hitting pitcher in his seven-year major league career. He posted a .254 batting average (252-for-993) with 107 runs, 40 doubles, 11 triples, 2 home runs, 94 RBI, 28 stolen bases and drawing 69 bases on balls. He was also used at first base. And in the outfield.
