American former professional baseballer

Biography

Douglas Metunwa Glanville is an American former professional baseball outfielder who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Philadelphia Phillies, Chicago Cubs, and Texas Rangers. He is also a broadcast color analyst for baseball, currently working with Marquee Sports Network and ESPN, and a contributor to The Athletic.

In 1999, Glanville batted .325, and placed second in the National League (NL) to Luis Gonzalez in hits, with 204. He was also known for his exceptional defense, having attained double-digit outfield assists on three occasions. Glanville also ended his career going 293 consecutive games without a fielding error. In the 11th inning of Game 3 of the 2003 NL Championship Series, he hit the game-winning triple for the Cubs.

In 2005, with no immediate prospects of joining an MLB roster, Glanville signed a one-day minor league contract with the Phillies, then retired, having collected exactly 1,100 career hits. He stated he wanted to leave baseball wearing the uniform of the team that he grew up as a fan of, and to which he gave most of his playing career.

Glanville is also a consultant with Baseball Factory, a high-school player development program, and writes guest columns for The New York Times and ESPN.com on baseball and sports in general. On April 1, 2010, he joined ESPN as a baseball color analyst. While at ESPN, Glanville appeared on Wednesday Night Baseball and contributed to Baseball Tonight, ESPN Radio, ESPN.com, and ESPN The Magazine. On April 27, 2017, it was revealed that he was to be among the many layoffs ESPN had made. He was hired by NBC Sports Chicago the following year. ESPN re-hired Glanville on March 28, 2019.

Glanville is currently teaching at the University of Connecticut Neag School of Education.
