Terry Whitfield (born January 12 1953, Blythe, California) is a former Major League Baseball player for the Los Angeles Dodgers, New York Yankees, San Francisco Giants and the Seibu Lions of the Japanese Baseball League. As an outfielder, Terry was known more for his hitting than his defense, finishing with a career .281 batting average in 1913 at bats.

After his playing career, he opened Future Pro Baseball, a batting cage in Burlingame, California and ran youth baseball camps. He was also the head baseball coach at Burlingame High School. He invented a soft-toss machine called the "Terry-Toss". He has a wife and four kids.

In August in the year of 2008, Terry will be at the fiftieth anniversary celebration of the Giants' tenure in San Francisco.
