Cornelius Stephen Creeden (July 21, 1915 – November 30, 1969) was an American professional baseball player. He played five games in Major League Baseball with the Boston Braves in 1943.
Creeden made his major league debut with the Boston Braves in 1943. He pinch hit in five games over the span of eight days, and did not play in the field. In his five plate appearances, he recorded one hit, one walk, and one RBI.[4] His only major league hit came on May 2 in the first game of the Braves' doubleheader against the Philadelphia Phillies at Shibe Park. With the game tied at 1–1 in the top of the ninth, Creeden delivered the game-winning RBI, a single off Phillies hurler Si Johnson that scored Chuck Workman to give the Braves the lead. Creeden was lifted for a pinch runner, and the Braves went on to win, 3–1.[5] In the second half of the twin bill, Creeden reached base via walk off Johnny Podgajny in the 12th inning, and was again removed for a pinch runner.[6]
