Detroit Tigers 1996-97: Pride signed with Detroit on March 31, 1996 and began the season at Triple A Toledo before joining the big club. In his most successful season as a pro, the outfielder hit .300 with 10 HR in 95 games. He began the 1997 season in the Motor City, but was released in August after hitting .210 in 79 games.

Boston Red Sox 1997: Signed by Boston just over a week later, Pride was assigned to Triple A Pawtucket. He appeared in only two games with the Red Sox that September, going 1 for 2. He was again granted free agency following the season.

Atlanta Braves 1998: Pride signed with the Braves organization in February and began the season in Triple A Richmond. The journeyman OF was later called up by the Braves, where he hit .252 in 70 games. He was released that December.

Boston Red Sox 2000: Pride went to Spring Training with the Kansas City Royals in 1999, but was released on March 4. He eventually landed with the Nashua Pride of the independent Atlantic League. In January 2000, he inked a deal with the Mets organization, but was quickly traded back to Boston.

After a stint in Triple A Pawtucket, Pride was promoted to the Red Sox in June. He appeared in 9 games and hit .250 (5 for 20), but was released on July 8. Just 10 days later, Pride signed with the Dodgers and completed the season at Triple A Albuquerque before becoming a free agent.

Montreal Expos 2001: The well traveled OF resigned with Montreal in December of 2000. After another stint at Triple A Ottawa, he joined the Expos for 36 games and hit .250. Again, he was granted free agency after the season.

New York Yankees 2003: Pride spent the 2002 season with Triple A Nashville in the Pittsburgh organization and was released again following the season. Unable to latch on with a major league organization early in 2003, he went back to Nashua and played well. In May he signed with the Yankee organization and was assigned to Triple A Columbus.

On July 4, Pride was called up to bolster the Yankees injury-riddled outfield. Two days later, his pinch hit home run sealed a victory over the rival Red Sox, and the crowd of 55,000 responded with a standing ovation. Pride's stay in the Bronx was short however, as he was sent back to Columbus on July 23 and finished the season there.

Currently, Curtis Pride is back on the free agent market. He hopes to catch on with a big league organization in 2004.
