Fred Tyler was a professional baseball player born in 1891, whose career spanned a brief period from October 3, 1914, to October 6, 1914. As a position player, Tyler made a modest impact in the major leagues, appearing in six games during his time with the team. Over the course of his short-lived career, he recorded two hits, contributing to a batting average of .105.
