Joseph Oscar Giard (October 7, 1898 – July 10, 1956) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher.[1]

Born in Ware, Massachusetts, Giard played two seasons for the St. Louis Browns, chiefly as a starter, before being traded (along with outfielder Cedric Durst) for pitcher Sad Sam Jones in February 1927;[2][3] Giard was therefore a member of the 1927 New York Yankees,[4] a team often considered the greatest ever.[5][6] He pitched 27 innings in 16 games, all in relief, for the Yankees that year, with an ERA of 8.00.

Giard died in Worcester, Massachusetts, on July 10, 1956.
