Edwin William Hickox (born July 31, 1962) is an American retired Major League Baseball umpire.

Hickox won the lawsuit against Wilson Sporting Goods and the subsequent appeal on January 31, 2013, receiving a $775,000 award for lawyer's fees and medical bills based on the court's finding that Wilson had failed to manufacture a safe product that failed to protect Hickox from the aforementioned injuries.

Hickox filed another complaint against Wilson, alleging mental anguish following the mask having "cracked into pieces upon impact" and failure to "protect an umpire in the way it is reportedly designed to do.

"[7] On July 12, 2013, while working the plate at Dodger Stadium, Hickox was struck by an eighth-inning foul ball—a 99 miles-per-hour fastball—in the mask, though he remained in the game through its completion one inning later.

The day following the incident, Hickox was replaced by fill-in umpire Lance Barrett due to a probable concussion.

[8] On September 4, 1993, Hickox was the third base umpire for New York Yankees pitcher Jim Abbott's no-hitter against the Cleveland Indians.

[9] He was at second base when Boston Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz no-hit the Baltimore Orioles on September 1, 2007.

He was the home plate umpire for Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Matt Garza's no hitter against the Detroit Tigers on July 26, 2010.
