Charles Willard Embree (August 30, 1917 – September 24, 1996) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher.

[1] Nicknamed Red, due to his red hair, Emree joined the Cleveland Indians in 1939, and spent three seasons in their minor league system before joining the major league club in September 1941.

[2] He returned to baseball in 1944 with some bravado, claiming during Spring training that he would win fifteen games for the Indians that season.

At the end of the season, he, Sherm Lollar and Dick Starr, plus $100,000 were sent to the St. Louis Browns for Roy Partee and Fred Sanford.

Embree was once again a starter when he arrived in St. Louis, however, once again lost his starting job when a July 7 loss to the Detroit Tigers in which he lasted just two-thirds of an inning dropped his record to 3–10 with a 5.03 ERA.
