Hugh Reid Poland (January 19, 1910 – March 29, 1984) was an American professional baseball catcher, manager and scout.
Poland threw right-handed, batted left-handed, and stood 6 ft (1.8 m) tall, weighing 185 lb (84 kg).
Poland's baseball career began in the St. Louis Cardinals' far-flung farm system of the 1930s.
He eventually reached the highest minor-league level (then Double-A), but his Major League Baseball debut did not occur until 1943, when at age 33 Poland appeared in a New York Giants uniform on April 22.
He was traded five days and four games later to the Boston Braves, with infielder Connie Ryan, in exchange for future Baseball Hall of Fame catcher Ernie Lombardi.
