Morris Woodrow Aderholt (September 13, 1915 – March 18, 1955)[1] was an American second baseman and outfielder in Major League Baseball from 1939 to 1945.

Born in Mount Olive, North Carolina, Aderholt graduated from Wake Forest University and played professional ball for the Washington Senators, Brooklyn Dodgers and Boston Braves from 1939 to 1945.

[2] Aderholt was described by Dodgers President Branch Rickey as the "World's worst third baseman... but he's a natural batsman."

After his playing career ended, he went on to manage several minor league teams and also served as a scout for the Senators.

Aderholt died on March 18, 1955, after suffering a heart attack during a scouting trip to Sarasota, Florida.
