Herbert Kuulei North (January 2, 1908 – April 6, 1964), nicknamed Buster, was an American baseball pitcher who played with the Nagoya Golden Dolphins in the Japanese Baseball League's inaugural 1936 season. He earned the first win in Japanese professional baseball history, an 8–5 opening day victory against the Dai Tokyo on April 29, 1936. North was referred to as one of the "Three Musketeers" of Nagoya, along with fellow imports Harris McGalliard and Sam Takahashi; the three were collectively the first Americans to play professional ball in Japan.
North returned to Hawaii after the season and played in the amateur circuit. He was part of the Hawaii national baseball team at the 1940 Amateur World Series. He later worked as a furniture salesman.
