Fuchs is one of many ballplayers who only appeared in the major leagues during World War II.[1] Making his major league debut in relief on April 17, 1942, against the St. Louis Browns at Sportsman's Park, his first major league win came just two days later.[2] He started the second game of a doubleheader against the same St. Louis Browns and pitched a 1–0 complete game shutout.
In three seasons Fuchs appeared in a total of 47 games and had a 6–10 record, 13 starts, 5 complete games, 2 shutouts, 13 games finished, and 1 save. He allowed 90 earned runs in 165<templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />2⁄3 innings pitched for a final ERA of 4.89. He was not a good hitter (3-for-43...an .070 batting average), but he was a competent fielder, handling 50 of 52 total chances successfully for a fielding percentage of .962.
Fuchs died at the age of 56 in Weehawken, New Jersey.
