Wesley Garvin Hamner (March 18, 1924 – December 15, 2003)[1] was an American professional baseball player.

A second baseman and shortstop, he appeared in one season (1945) for the Philadelphia Phillies of Major League Baseball.

While Granny was the better prospect, and had a 17-year MLB career, the similarity in their names caused a mixup during the 1947 Rule 5 draft.

The St. Louis Browns had scouted Granny and wanted to draft him off the Phils' Utica Blue Sox minor-league roster.

[2] Garvin Hamner, a lifelong resident of Richmond, Virginia, threw and batted right-handed, stood 5 feet 11 inches (1.80 m) tall and weighed 172 pounds (78 kg).
