Franklin Jehoy Sykes (April 10, 1892 – November 10, 1986), nicknamed "Doc", was an American Negro league pitcher in the 1910s and 1920s. A native of Decatur, Alabama, Sykes was the brother of fellow Negro leaguer Melvin Sykes. Older brother Franklin attended Atlanta Baptist College and Howard University College of Medicine. He broke into professional baseball in 1914 with the Brooklyn Royal Giants, but his longest tenure was with the Baltimore Black Sox in the early 1920s. In 1922, Sykes tossed a no-hitter for Baltimore against the Bacharach Giants at Maryland Baseball Park.
