George Willis Hudlin (May 23 1906 - August 5 2002) was born in Wagoner, Oklahoma and was a Major League Baseball pitcher for, most notably, the Cleveland Indians from 1926 to 1940. Hudlin didn't pitch more than 10 games with any other team, although he played with 3 others.

In 1940, Hudlin became one of the few players to compete on 4 different major league teams in the same year (Cleveland Indians, Washington Senators, St. Louis Browns, and the New York Giants).

His career statistics include a 158-156 record, with a 4.41 ERA. He had 677 strikeouts in 2613 career innings pitched.

Hudlin died in Little Rock, Arkansas, at the age of 96.
