Charles Victor "Victory" Faust (October 9, 1880 – June 18, 1915) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher.

As a joke, McGraw gave Faust a tryout, and he was eventually allowed to stay due to the team's sudden winning streak that commenced after his arrival.

Faust wanted to pitch in a real game, but having little athletic ability, he was relegated to warming up with the team on the field.

After the Giants clinched the pennant, Faust pitched in the ninth inning of two games, allowing one run and stealing two bases.

Faust's story was revived in the 1960s, when one of his Giants teammates, Fred Snodgrass, talked about him in an interview for The Glory of Their Times.
