Thomas James Pham (born March 8, 1988) is an American professional baseball outfielder. He has previously played in MLB for the St. Louis Cardinals, Tampa Bay Rays, San Diego Padres, Cincinnati Reds, and Boston Red Sox.
He previously played for the St. Louis Cardinals, with whom he made his MLB debut on September 9, 2014. Pham bats and throws right-handed, stands 6 feet 1 inch (1.85 m) tall and weighs 210 pounds (95 kg).
A native of Las Vegas, Nevada, the Cardinals selected Pham in the 16th round of the 2006 amateur draft. He overcame a number of injuries and vision impairments related to keratoconus to make his major league debut nine seasons after being drafted. In 2017, Pham became the first Cardinals batter since 1900 to record at least a .300 batting average, 20 home runs, 20 doubles and 20 stolen bases in the same season.

On April 15, 2024, Pham signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox. In four games for the Triple–A Charlotte Knights, he went 5–for–17 (.294) with one RBI and two stolen bases. On April 26, Pham was added to Chicago's roster after he triggered an opt–out in his contract.

On July 29, 2024, the White Sox traded Pham to the St. Louis Cardinals as part of a three-team deal that also sent Erick Fedde and a player to be named later to St. Louis, sent Tommy Edman, Michael Kopech and Oliver Gonzalez to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and sent Miguel Vargas, Alexander Albertus, Jeral Pérez and a player to be named later to the White Sox.
