Edward T. Bruyette (August 31, 1874 – August 5, 1940) was an American outfielder in Major League Baseball. He played for the Milwaukee Brewers in 1901.[1]

Bruyette was born in Manawa, Wisconsin, and began his professional baseball career in 1900 in the International League. In 1901, he was acquired by the Brewers' player-manager Hugh Duffy and played in 26 major league games in August and September. He batted a minuscule .183, and his fielding percentage as an outfielder was .778 (8 errors in 36 chances).[1] The following season, Bruyette was back in the minors with the Minneapolis Millers and Helena Senators.[2] After his baseball career ended, he was a grading foreman in a packing plant.[3] He died in Peshastin, Washington, at the age of 65.
