Arthur Carter Whitney (January 2, 1905 – September 1, 1987), born in San Antonio, Texas, was a third baseman for the Philadelphia Phillies (1928–1933 and 1936–1939) and Boston Braves/Bees (1933–1936).
Whitney made his debut on April 11, 1928, and played 151 games that year for the Phillies, leading the team with 103 runs batted in.
In 1929, Whitney played in all 154 of his team's games, batting .327 and tallying a career-high 43 doubles and 295 total bases for the fifth-place Phillies.
He put up respectable numbers in Boston, even on the 1935 team that finished with the lowest winning percentage in National League history (.248).
Early into the 1936 season he was traded back to the Phillies, where he seemed to enjoy a resurgence, being named to the 1936 National League All-Star Team.
