Eric Wade Cammack (born August 14, 1975) is an American former relief pitcher in Major League Baseball who played briefly for the New York Mets during the 2000 season. Listed at , 180 lb., Cammack batted and threw right-handed. A native of Nederland, Texas, he was selected by the Mets in the 1997 MLB draft after playing college baseball for the Cardinals of Lamar University.

In eight relief appearances, Cammack posted a 6.30 earned run average and did not have a decision or saves, giving up seven runs on seven hits and 10 walks while striking out nine in 10.0 innings of work.
