Richard Michael Krivda (born January 19, 1970) is an American former baseball pitcher.

Krivda pitched 12 years in professional baseball and won a gold medal in the 2000 Olympics.

He was second in the Eastern League in ERA, trailing only Denny Harriger and beating out top prospects Brien Taylor and Frank Rodriguez.

Krivda got the start for the American League affiliate team for the Double-A All-Star Game and allowed two runs in two innings in a 12-7 loss.

At age 24, Krivda spent a full year at Triple-A, one of six in which he would perform in Rochester.

He went 3-5 with a 4.96 ERA in 22 games for the Orioles; the 812⁄3 innings he pitched marked a career high in the majors.

He had a chance to lead the league in wins as well but spent the last couple months of the year with Baltimore.

He was then traded in mid-June to the Cincinnati Reds for Eddie Priest and Christian Rojas.

He took the team's lone loss, a 6-1 defeat by Cuba — Krivda allowed five hits, a walk and two runs in two innings.

Not pitching in 2002, Krivda played in independent league ball in 2003 with the Somerset Patriots (3-6, 6.28) and San Angelo Colts (1-1, 2.37) to finish his pro career with a 102-66 record, 91-50 in the minors.
