Douglas Lee Griffin (June 4, 1947 – July 27, 2016) was an American professional baseball second baseman who played for the California Angels and Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball (MLB).

Griffin played high school baseball at El Monte High School in California,[1] graduating in 1965, where he achieved All-Pacific League, All-Valley, and All-California Interscholastic Federation honors.

He was not a particularly good hitter, posting modest batting averages with few walks and very little power, but instead he was an excellent fielder, winning a Gold Glove Award in 1972.

[1] In June 1975, the Red Sox acquired veteran second baseman Denny Doyle from the Angels, and for the rest of the season, the left-handed-hitting Doyle was the Red Sox's primary second baseman, with the right-handed-hitting Griffin starting only against left-handed pitchers.

On April 30, 1974, Griffin was beaned by a Nolan Ryan fastball, knocking him unconscious.
