Stanley Timothy Crews (April 3, 1961 - March 23, 1993) was born in Tampa, Florida. He was a Major League Baseball pitcher who pitched six seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers -- by|1987 to by|1992. He was granted free agency after the 1992 season and signed with the Cleveland Indians on January 22, by|1993.

During Spring Training for his seventh season, Crews was killed in a boating accident in Clermont, Florida. The accident also killed teammate and fellow reliever Steve Olin. Teammate Bob Ojeda was severely injured in the accident as well. Crews, who was driving the boat, was legally drunk at the time when he drove the boat into a pier. It was the first death of active major league players during a season since Thurman Munson in by|1979.

In 281 games, almost all in relief, he was 11-13 with 83 games finished and 15 saves. For his career, Crews compiled a 3.44 earned run average in 423⅔ innings.

In response to the accident that took Steve Olin and Crews in 1993, the Indians wore a patch on the sleeves of their jerseys. It consisted of a baseball with their numbers on it. Olin's # 31 is on the left with an arrow above. Crew's # 52 is on the right with a star above it. The Dodgers also wore a patch with Crews' number 52 for the 1993 season.
