Charles Solomon "Buddy" Myer was an American professional baseball player. He played in Major League Baseball as a second baseman from 1925 through 1941. A two-time All-Star, Myer was notable for being the 1935 American League batting champion and led the American League in stolen bases in 1928. An excellent hitter, he batted .300 or better nine times, and retired with a career average of .303. Myer walked more than twice as many times as he struck out. Apart from a brief period with the Boston Red Sox in 1927–28, he spent his entire career with the Washington Senators.

The 1935 Major League Baseball season was contested from April 16 to October 7, 1935. The Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers were the regular season champions of the National League and American League, respectively. The Tigers then defeated the Cubs in the World Series, four games to two.
