Chris Gomez

Christopher Cory Gomez (born June 16, 1971) is a former Major League Baseball infielder.

His contract was purchased from the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens on July 19, 1993, and he made his big league debut that night against the Minnesota Twins.

His first major league hit was a triple on July 22 off Kansas City Royals pitcher Frank DiPino.

Gomez started out the 1996 season with the Tigers, but was traded along with catcher John Flaherty to the San Diego Padres for catcher Brad Ausmus, shortstop Andújar Cedeño, and minor leaguer Russ Spears.

When the team found out Plácido Polanco was remaining with them, they allowed the Orioles to buy him back.

On January 9, 2009, Gomez signed a minor league deal with the Baltimore Orioles, and was given a non-roster invitation to spring training.
