Kevin D. Ritz (born June 8, 1965, in Eatontown, New Jersey) is a retired Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher. Ritz grew up in Bloomfield, Iowa. He is an alumnus of William Penn University and Indian Hills Community College. [cite news | title=Amateur Draft, List | date=June 4, 1985 | work=Associated Press]

Drafted by the Detroit Tigers in the 4th round of the 1985 MLB amateur draft, Ritz would make his Major League Baseball debut with the Detroit Tigers on July 15, 1989, and appeared in his final game on May 16, 1998.

Ritz had his big break when he joined the Rockies in 1994, where he found some success in his career. He was a member of the first Colorado Rockies team to reach the playoffs. This came in the 1995 season. His best season was in 1996, when he went 17-11 in 213 innings pitched, despite recording a high ERA of 5.28 in hitter-friendly Coors Field and leading the National League in Earned Runs Allowed (125).
