Eric DuBose (born May 15, 1976) is an American former professional baseball pitcher. He bats and throws left-handed and attended Mississippi State University. Currently, Dubose serves as a Director for East Coast Sox Baseball Organization, an elite nationally known showcase organization based out of the southeast.
After tossing just 6 innings in 4 games in 2002, his first official year, DuBose looked to be a career minor leaguer for good. However, when the Baltimore Orioles needed a spot starter for a game against the Royals in May 2003, they recalled DuBose from Triple-A Ottawa and he did not disappoint, tossing 6 innings of 3-hit, 2-run ball. DuBose spent most of 2003 in the bullpen, though he was made a full-time starter in September. DuBose finished '03 with a 3–6 record and 3.79 ERA in 17 games.
Unfortunately for the Orioles' organization, DuBose took a step back as a full-time starter in 2004, compiling a 6.39 ERA in 14 games while allowing 12 home runs. In 2005 the struggles continued – DuBose was ineffective in 15 games, walking more batters than he struck out. After signing a minor league contract with the Colorado Rockies before the start of the 2007 season, DuBose was released on May 15, 2007.
