Robert Edward Barthelson (July 15, 1924 - April 14, 2000) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the New York Giants in 1944. The 6'0", 185 lb. right-hander was a native of New Haven, Connecticut.
Barthelson is one of many ballplayers who only appeared in the major leagues during World War II. At the age of 19 he made his major league debut in a 4th of July doubleheader against the St. Louis Cardinals at Sportsman's Park. Three weeks later, in his only big league start, he lost to the Pittsburgh Pirates at the Polo Grounds.
In a total of seven games he was 1-1 with 5 games finished, allowing 5 earned runs in 9.2 innings pitched for a final ERA of 4.66.
Barthelson died in 2000 in Branford, Connecticut.
