Chad Douglas Fox (born September 3, 1970 in Conroe, Texas) is a Major League Baseball pitcher for the Chicago Cubs. Fox played for the Atlanta Braves, Milwaukee Brewers, Boston Red Sox, Florida Marlins, and the Chicago Cubs. He won the 2003 World Series championship as a member of the Marlins. He is also known for his injuries that have set him back in his career, undergoing Tommy John surgery twice, including having been injured in the 2004 and 2005 seasons. His second Tommy John surgery temporarily ended his career.
On January 11, 2008, he signed a one-year minor league deal with the Chicago Cubs hoping to make a comeback. After several rehab starts with the Cubs' A and AA affiliates, Fox was added to the 25-man major league roster on May 2[1].
Fox was injured on April 26, 2005, and after a three year absence he made his major league comeback debut on May 2, 2008 against the St. Louis Cardinals. He went 1-2-3 in the bottom of the 10th inning but gave up a 2-run home run in the 11th inning to take the loss.
Fox attended Tarleton State University.
