Christopher Trotman "Trot" Nixon (born April 11, 1974 in Durham, North Carolina) is an outfielder for the Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball. He was drafted by the Red Sox in the 1st round of the 1993 amateur draft, and was the 7th pick overall. Trot had a career year in 2003 along with many of his teammates when he batted .306 with 24 doubles and 28 home runs. He remains a fan favorite in Boston due to his 'dirt dog' aggressive style of baseball. He bats and throws left-handed.
During the incredible 2004 Red Sox season, Nixon was unavailable for several months due to a herniated disc and a tight thigh muscle. However, upon his return he proved to be an invaluable part of the team, generally working as the starting right fielder throughout the regular and post-season. He also endeared himself to Sox fans by briefly wearing a mohawk hairstyle, one of the many unconventional hairstyles sported by the Red Sox over the course of the season.
