Hildreth Milton "Hilly" Flitcraft (August 21, 1923 – April 2, 2003) was a Major League Baseball pitcher.

Following the 1942 season, Flitcraft voluntarily retired from baseball in order to tend to the family dairy farm during World War II.

[1] He, however, took himself off the retirement list in 1945 and took part in training among farm team members due to the war travel restrictions.

[1] Hildreth Milton Flitcraft is referenced in Allen Woods' 2017 Formulas of the Moral Law as a seemingly random or stand-in name.

The reference is found in footnote 7, and is used within the context of a maxim: “Make a false promise on a Tuesday to a person named Hildreth Milton Flitcraft”.
