Patrick Francis Creeden (May 23, 1906 – April 20, 1992) was an American baseball second baseman who played one season in Major League Baseball (MLB). He played five games for the Boston Red Sox in 1931. Nicknamed "Whoops",[1] he batted left-handed but threw right-handed and was listed at 5 feet 8 inches (1.73 m) and 175 pounds (79 kg).

Signed by the Red Sox without having previously played any minor league baseball, Creeden made his debut on April 14, 1931. In eight at bats, he failed to amass a single hit and committed two errors. He played his final game on April 21, exactly a week after his debut. He never played professional baseball again and died on April 20, 1992, in Brockton, Massachusetts.
