Based on 2 minute cadence TESS data from sectors 1-50, we report the results of the systematic extraction of δ Scuti-type pulsations in the 6431 eclipsing binaries with orbital periods shorter than 13 days. A total number of 242 pulsators were found in those systems, including 143 new discoveries. We examined their pulsation properties based on the H-R diagram and the relationships between the dominant pulsation period P_dom, orbital period P_orb, and effective temperature T_eff. As a consequence, 216 targets are likely δ Scuti stars (123 new), 11 likely γ Doradus-δ Scuti hybrid stars (8 new), 5 likely β Cephei stars (4 new), 4 likely δ Scuti-γ Doradus hybrid stars (3 new), 3 likely Maia stars (3 new), 2 likely pulsating red giants (1 new), and a new unclassified star. As for the six new δ Scuti pulsators in eclipsing binaries with P_orb < 0.65 days, we found that three of them significantly exceed the upper limits of the P_dom/P_orb ratio. This may indicate that P_dom and P_orb are uncorrelated for them. Finally, we statistically analyzed the dominant pulsation periods of the 216 δ Scuti stars in eclipsing binaries. Those stars concentrate around 225 μHz and the proportion of stars in the high-frequency region is significantly higher than that of single stars, which could be ascribed to the mass-transfer process.
