Eric Peter Karros, born in 1967, is a former American first baseman who played in Major League Baseball from 1991 to 2004. He played for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Chicago Cubs and Oakland Athletics.
Karros was born in Hackensack, New Jersey and graduated from Patrick Henry High School in San Diego, California. He attended UCLA, where he received a degree in economics. Karros was selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the sixth round of the 1988 Major League Baseball Draft. He made his Major League debut as a pinch runner on September 1, 1991 against the Chicago Cubs.
He was named the 1992 National League Rookie of the Year. Karros put up consistent numbers throughout his career with the Dodgers, with a batting average just under .270 and an average of almost 25 home runs a year. No Dodger in the organization's history compiled more 30 home run 100 RBI seasons than Karros (five, matched only by Duke Snider and Gil Hodges). Karros also remains the only player in Dodger history to hit two homers in the same inning. 1999 was his best statistical year with the Dodgers, when he hit .304 with 34 home runs and 112 RBI. His career 270 home runs as a Dodger remains the third most in the team's history.
On December 2, 2002, he was traded along with Mark Grudzielanek to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for Todd Hundley and Chad Hermansen. After playing the 2003 season with the Cubs he was granted free agency from the team at the end of the year. In 114 games with the Cubs, he hit .286 with 12 home runs and 40 RBI. He then signed with the Oakland Athletics before the start of the 2004 season. Karros’ final MLB game was on July 21, 2004, and he was released by the Athletics on August 3, 2004. He only appeared in 40 games with the team, hitting .194 with 2 home runs and 11 RBI.
