William Ashley Freehan (born November 29, 1941) was an American former professional baseball player. He played his entire 15-year Major League Baseball career as a catcher for the Detroit Tigers. The premier catcher in the American League for several years from the 1960s into the early 1970s, he was named an All-Star in each of the 11 seasons in which he caught at least 75 games, and was the MVP runner-up for the 1968 World Series champions, handling a pitching staff that included World Series MVP Mickey Lolich and regular season MVP Denny McLain, who became the first 30-game winner in the majors since 1934.
