On 21 August 2003, the New England Revolution acquired Fabbro and striker Chris Brown from the Kansas City Wizards in exchange for Wolde Harris, Jorge Gabriel Vázquez, and a conditional SuperDraft pick.[6][7]
Fabbro made his Revolution debut in a 2-1 loss to the LA Galaxy on 23 August 2003.[8] While a member of the Revolution, Fabbro recorded three goals.[8] He scored them in three straight games, all of which were against the MetroStars, on 18 October,[9] 25, and then in game one of the Eastern Conference Semifinal on 1 November.[10] He provided an assist to Pat Noonan in the second leg of the tie, helping the Revolution advance to the Eastern Conference Final for the second time in the club's history.[11]
