Edward Fredrick Fisher (October 31, 1876 – July 24, 1951) was a Major League Baseball pitcher who appeared in one game for the Detroit Tigers near the end of the 1902 season. The 6'2" (188 cm), 200 pound (91 kg) right-hander was a native of Wayne, Michigan.[1]

On September 5, 1902, Fisher pitched effectively in the last four innings of a 15–1 home loss against the Baltimore Orioles. He allowed five runs, but none of them were earned runs, so his lifetime ERA stands at 0.00.[2]

One of his teammates was second baseman Kid Gleason,[3] who would go on to become the manager of the infamous 1919 Chicago White Sox (Black Sox).[4]

Fisher died at the age of 74 in Spokane, Washington.[1]
