Doug Glanville (born August 25, 1970 in Hackensack, New Jersey) is a former baseball outfielder who played for the Philadelphia Phillies and the Chicago Cubs.

In 2005, with no immediate prospects of joining a major league roster, Glanville signed a one-day minor league contract with Philadelphia, then retired, having collected exactly 1100 career hits. He stated he wanted to leave baseball wearing the uniform of the team that he grew up a fan of, and to which he gave most of his playing career.

Glanville flashed a bat one year as he bat over .300, and placing second in the league to Luis Gonzalez in hits, with 204, never to hit that well again. But he's always been known for his defense as one of the best outfielders in the National League.

Glanville is an avid MMOG player along with former teammate, Curt Schilling.
