Bradley Jay Lesley (born September 11, 1958 in Turlock, California) was a Major League Baseball player for the Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers from 1982 to 1985. Lesley who was nicknamed "The Animal", was known more for his aggressive style to motivate himself, like Al Hrabosky, Kevin Saucier, or Mark Fidrych, than for his pitching abilities. He only appeared in 54 games posting a 1-3 record with 6 saves. He later became a television personality in Japan, after playing several seasons for the Hankyu Braves.

He is probably known the most for his role in the Japanese gameshow, Takeshi's Castle where he would participate in such games as Honey Comb Maze, Velcro Fly and Home Run.

He has also made a number of appearances in certain films such as Brother (2000) (as Moose), Big Monster on Campus (2000) (as Arnie), Buddy (1997) (as Ali Baba), A Boy Called Hate (1996) (as the Moving Truck Driver), Little Big League (1994) (as John 'Blackout' Gatling) and Mr. Baseball (1992) (as Niven). He also made a brief appearance in Space Jam (1996) (as Himself), after Michael Jordan had asked him to star in it personally.
