Hittle spent the early weeks of the 1950 campaign with Washington, working in 11 games with four more starts. On May 9, he tamed the White Sox again, allowing two runs but registering his final MLB complete game in a 3–2 victory.[5] After his final appearance with Washington, a starting assignment against the Detroit Tigers on June 11, he returned to minor league baseball, pitching through 1954—largely in the Pacific Coast League.
In the big leagues, Hittle allowed 183 hits and 74 bases on balls in 1521⁄3 innings of work. He struck out 41.
