Robert Murphy has served as President of the Dayton Dragons since the organization’s inception in 1999 and has worked in sports management since 1995. He was named Executive of the Year by the Midwest League in the years 2000 and 2011. In 2000, he was named to Dayton Business Journal’s Top 40 Under 40 in Business. In 2005, he was named Minor League Baseball Executive of the Year by The Sporting News. In 2013, Murphy was awarded the West Chester-Liberty Chamber Alliance Everest Award honoring leaders and legends on the I-75 Growth Corridor.

Under Murphy’s leadership, the Dragons have sold-out every home game since their inception in 2000, breaking the all-time North American record for most consecutive sellouts on July 9, 2011 when they sold out their 815th consecutive game, topping the record set by the Portland Trail Blazers of the NBA.

Luis Bolivar - Manager Bolivar (BULL-uh-varr) returns to the Dragons for his second season as manager after serving as the Dragons hitting coach for three seasons, 2014-16. He is the ninth manager in Dragons history. Under Bolivar’s direction in 2017, the Dragons qualified for the Midwest League playoffs by posting a record of 41-29 in the season’s first half. They won their first round playoff series over West Michigan to advance to the post-season semi-finals, where they extended Fort Wayne to a third and deciding game before falling. It was the first time in Dragons history that they had reached the third game of a semi-final round playoff series. Bolivar played in 180 games for the Dragons in 2003-’04 and represented Dayton in the 2004 Midwest League All-Star Game. He is the first Dragons player to also serve as a coach or manager for the team. Bolivar began his coaching career as the hitting

coach for the AZL Reds in 2013.

PLAYING CAREER: Bolivar spent nine years in the Minor Leagues including eight seasons in the Reds organization. From 2002-’09, he played at every level in the Reds farm system. He played at least 150 games at three different positions, working at second base, shortstop, and third base. He also saw action in left field, right field, and first base. On April 7, 2008, Bolivar became just the 11th player in Southern League history to collect six hits in one game as a member of the Chattanooga Lookouts.

PERSONAL: Bolivar, 36, has resided in the Dayton suburb of Vandalia since his tenure as a Dragons player and served as an assistant coach at Vandalia-Butler High School prior to joining the Reds as a coach in 2013. He and his wife, Kelly have four children: Kamryn, Luisa, Zoey, and Enzo. Bolivar was born and raised in Venezuela before coming the United States as a Reds prospect in 2002.

2018 Dayton Dragons

Dragons Managers 2000-2017Freddie Benavides: 2000 (70-67; 2-3 post season)Benavides was named the Dragons inaugural manager after leading the Clinton Lumber Kings in 1999 to a 69-68 record in his first season as a manager in the Reds Minor League system. Under Benavides the 2000 Dragons posted a 70-67 record and qualified for the MWL playoffs as a wild card, losing to the Michigan Battle Cats in the second round.

Donnie Scott: 2001-2003, 2007-2008 (360-336; 5-8 post season)The Dragons reached the post season in four of Scott’s five seasons as manager. Scott’s first season of 2001 saw Dayton post an overall record of 82-57, which ranks as the second best in team history behind the 2011 club. The 2001 team advanced to the second round of the playoffs. Under Scott the 2002 Dragons ripped off a 13-game win streak and reached the post season. Scott returned to the Miami Valley for his second stint as Dragons manager in 2007 as the Dragons returned to the MWL playoffs in consecutive years.

Alonzo Powell: 2004-2005 (108-171; Did not qualify for post season)The Dragons failed to make the playoffs in Powell’s two seasons as manager, mainly due to hitting and pitching restrictions placed on the Reds A level minor league clubs during his tenure. Under Powell in ‘05, the Dragons won 12 more games than in his first season, with a 24 point improvement in team batting average, 24 more home runs and 114 more runs.

Billy Gardner, Jr.: 2006 (67-73; Did not qualify for post season)Once again the Dragons overall record improved as Gardner led the Dragons to a 67-73 record in his only season on the Dayton bench. Despite the increase in wins, the Dragons failed to qualify for the playoffs for the fourth straight year. Dayton finished in a third place tie at 35-35 in the first half, the best half of baseball for the team since the first half of 2003.

Todd Benzinger: 2009 - 2010 (112-165; Did Not Qualify for post-season)Benzinger, a key member of the Reds’ 1990 World Series Champions, guided the Dragons through two seasons. The failed to qualify for the playoffs in either year, losing out to South Bend by one game for the final wildcard spot in the second half in 2009. The Dragons began the 2010 season by winning their first five games and were at the .500 mark at 17-17 before numerous roster changes sent the club into a skid. By season’s end, a club-record 55 players had worn the uniform of the Dragons.

Delino DeShields: 2011 - 2012 (143-135; 1-2 post-season)The Dragons established a club record for victories in a season in 2011, going 83-57 in DeShields’ first season with the club. The team won the second half East Division title, going 48-22 to mark the best half in team history. It was also the best second half record in all of Minor League Baseball among leagues that play a split-season format. The Dragons lost to Lansing, two-games-to-one, in the first round of the playoffs. The 2012 season was a struggle as the Dragons finished in eighth place in both halves.

Jose Nieves: 2013 -2015 (204-222; Did Not Qualify for post-season)The 2013 Dragons posted a winning record in the second half at 37-33 and set a club record for fewest errors in a season. The 2014 Dragons went 16-7 over the first 23 games but after a rash of injuries and promotions, they finished in third place in the final first half standings. In the second half, the Dragons led the wildcard race with two games to play but split their final two contests to fall just short. In 2015, the Dragons lost the first half wildcard by two percentage points and finished the year with a winning record at 71-68.

Dick Schofield: 2016 (47-93; Did Not Qualify for post-season)Schofield, part of a three-generation Major League family (one of only five in baseball history), endured a tough year in his only season with the Dragons. The team lost nine of its first 10 games and could never recover, finishing the first half in last place in the East Division with a 21-49 record. The Dragons improved to 26-44 in the second half, tied for last in the East. Schofield’s efforts to manufacture wins was challenging as the club finished last in the league in runs scored while allowing the most runs in the circuit.

Luis Bolivar: 2017 (71-69; 3-3 post season)The Dragons went 41-29 in the first half to earn a spot in the playoffs for the first time since 2011. They went to the playoffs as a first half qualifier for the first time since 2007. After going 30-40 in the second half, the Dragons upset West Michigan, the East Division winner in both halves, in the first round of the playoffs. They opened the second round with a win at Fort Wayne but lost the next two games to end their season. It was the first time in franchise history that the Dragons reached a decisive game three of the semi-finals.

2018 Dayton Dragons

The Dragons qualified for the Midwest League playoffs for the first time since 2011 and then set a club record for most post-season victories. By posting a first-half record of 41-29, the Dragons were the East Division First Half Wildcard winner. The Dragons knocked off heavily-favored West Michigan in the first round of the playoffs, two-games-to-one, taking the decisive third game in an epic 11-inning battle that lasted nearly four hours. The Dragons won the first game of their second round (semi-final) series with Fort Wayne before dropping games two and three to end their post-season run.

The Dragons enjoyed an incredible first six weeks to the 2017 baseball season. After 43 games on May 21, the Dragons were 30-13. At the time, they had the most victories and highest winning percentage (.698) in all of Professional Baseball (30 MLB teams, 120 active Minor League teams). The Dragons went 19-4 from April 27-May 21. They were almost impossible to beat at home. After losing their first two home games of the season, the Dragons went 18-2 at Fifth Third

Field over the next 20 games. At the end of the First Half, the Dragons had tied the club record for home wins in a half by going 25-11 at Fifth Third Field. The Dragons also put together a big finish to the regular

season. Over their last 21 games, they went 16-5 as they prepared for the playoffs. That stretch included nine road wins in 10 games.

The season at Fifth Third Field officially opened on April 1st when the Cincinnati Reds played a collection of their best minor league prospects from the Triple-A, Double-A, and Single-A levels. The Reds defeated the Futures Team 5-1 as Scott Schebler, Stuart Turner, and Patrick Kivlehan all hit home runs for Cincinnati. Former Dragon Amir Garrett (pictured left) started the game for the Reds and tossed three scoreless innings. The “Futures Game” was the second of its kind at Fifth Third Field (the first took place in 2009).

Jose Siri - Siri produced a Midwest League record 39-game hitting streak that began with the first game of the second half on June 22 and ended on August 4. On July 31, Siri broke the 40-year-old Midwest League of 35 straight games set by Waterloo’s Tony Toups in 1977. He broke the streak on an 0-2 pitch in his final at-bat of the game at Fort Wayne. Siri’s hitting streak received tremendous media attention throughout the region and over all of Minor League Baseball, including video highlights on Reds television broadcasts and radio replays on the Reds Radio Network.

Siri was selected as one of three outfielders on the full-season Midwest League All-Star Team as he turned in the best statistical season for a Dragons player since Austin Kearns in the team’s inaugural year of 2000. Siri led the league in hits, runs, total bases, extra base hits, slugging percentage, and stolen bases while tying for the league lead in triples. He finished second in the league in home runs and fourth in runs batted in. His final slugging percentage of .530 was the second best in team history, trailing only Kearns from 2000.

Taylor Trammell - Despite being one of the youngest position players in the league at age 19, Trammell turned in a huge season for the Dragons and was the consensus top prospect on the team. He led the league in games played while batting .281 with 13 home runs and 77 runs batted in. Trammell finished second in the league in stolen bases, tied for second in RBI, third in hits and triples, and fourth in total bases. Following the season, most publications listed Trammell as the Reds third best prospect, behind only former #1 draft picks Nick Senzel and Hunter Greene.

2017 Season Review

Scott Moss – Moss bounced back from arm injuries that limited him to less than 25 innings over his entire college career at the University of Florida to become just the second pitcher in Dragons history to lead the Midwest League in strikeouts. Moss finished with 156, 20 more than the second best total in the league. The left-hander (pictured left) went 13-6 to finish second in the league in victories, while his 3.45 earned run average finished sixth in the league. Moss was one of six Dragons selected to play in the Midwest League All-Star Game. He was joined in the game by outfielder Michael Beltre, catcher Tyler Stephenson, and pitchers Aaron Fossas, Tony Santillan, and Wennington Romero. Outfielder T.J. Friedl was chosen to play but was promoted before the game.

Aaron Fossas – Fossas (pictured below), a former undrafted free agent out of Wake Forest, appeared in 44 games, going 4-1 with a 2.43

ERA and six saves. Fossas also earned the Reds Community Service Award, an honor given annually to one player in the entire Reds farm system. Fossas earned the award for his efforts as a volunteer as part of various Dragons community service endeavors. Fossas became the sixth Dragons player to win the Reds Minor League Community Service Award since 2011.

Tony Santillan - Santillan (at left) was selected before the season by Baseball America as the Reds Minor League pitcher with the “Best Fastball,” and then put together a strong campaign. He went 9-8 with a 3.38 ERA that ranked fifth in the league, and his strikeout total of 128 was fourth. Santillan featured a fastball that climbed as high as 99 mph with a slider that could also top 90. After the season, Santillan was listed as a top-10 prospect in the Reds system by virtually every publication that specialized in such lists.

No-Hitter: On May 20th at Fifth Third Field, three Dragons pitchers combined for the first nine-inning no-hitter in Dragons history. Starting pitcher Scott Moss worked six innings, following by Carlos Machorro in his first game with the team.

Machorro went two perfect innings, and Brian Hunter tossed a 1-2-3 ninth inning to complete the no-hitter against Bowling Green, before the celebration began (pictured lower right).

Attendance: For the 12th consecutive year, the Dragons led all Minor League Baseball teams below the Triple-A level in attendance (130 teams). And for the 18th time in the Dragons 18 years of operation, they finished in the top 10 among all Minor League teams and first among all Single-A teams. In 2017, the Dragons attracted 554,638 in total attendance (8,038 per game over 69 home dates) to finish eighth in all of Minor League Baseball (160 teams). The other nine teams in the top 10 were all Triple-A clubs. The Dragons 18-year attendance total topped the 10 million mark in 2017, rising to 10,547,907. The Dragons consecutive game sell-out streak continued through the 2017 season. After the final regular season home game on September 1, the streak stood at 1,246 consecutive sold-out games, an all-time record for sports in North America.

Dragons Earning Major Awards Jose Siri - Reds Minor League Batter of the Year; Midwest League Full-Season All-Star; MWL Player of the Month in July.

The All-Time Greatest EndingOn July 18, 2013 at Fifth Third Field, Dragons slugger Seth Mejias-Brean provided the most dramatic ending to a win in team history. Trailing Beloit 6-3 in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Dragons loaded the bases with one out. Mejias-Brean then promptly drilled a “walk-off” grand slam home run to right-center field to give his team a 7-6 win. It was the first walk-off grand slam when trailing by three runs in Dragons history and the first in the Reds organization in five years.


2017 Game by Game

Cueto’s 5-Inning No-HitterOn May 13, 2006 in Appleton, Wisconsin, Johnny Cueto fired the first no-hitter by a Dragons pitcher in team history. It was the second game of a doubleheader, scheduled for seven innings. Cueto cruised through the first five, striking out eight and walking two without allowing a hit as only two balls left the infield. Rain stopped the game before the sixth inning and it did not resume. Cueto was credited with a no-hitter in the rain-shortened game. Cueto pitched a complete game in his next start (another seven-inning game) allowing just one hit.

2017 Game by Game

The First Nine-Inning No-Hitter in Dragons HistoryOn May 20, 2017 at Fifth Third Field, three Dragons pitchers combined for the first nine-inning no-hitter in Dragons history. Starting pitcher Scott Moss worked six innings, allowing three walks and two hit batsmen, but no hits, while throwing 84 pitches. Carlos Machorro, in his first game with the team, followed Moss and went two perfect innings. Then Brian Hunter tossed a 1-2-3 ninth inning to complete the no-hitter against Bowling Green. Third baseman John Sansone fielded a ground ball and threw to first for the game’s final out. The Dragons won the game, 2-0.

Back-to-Back-to-Back Home RunsOn June 13 at Fifth Third Field, three consecutive Dragons batters blasted home runs against the Beloit Snappers. In the second inning, Jose Ortiz started the back-to-back-to-back home run barrage with a two-run shot to center field. Jimmy Pickens hit the very next pitch for a home run to center, and Luis Gonzalez made it three in a row when he hit the second pitch for a home run to left. Four pitches-three home runs. It was the first time in franchise history that three straight Dragons batters connected on home runs.

Billy Hamilton’s Season for the AgesBilly Hamilton became a Fifth Third Field legend in 2011 when he stole 103 bases for the Dragons,

establishing an all-time single-season record for the entire Reds organization. In four straight games August 21-24, he led off the game with a base hit, then stole second base on the very next pitch. In the first two games among the four, he also stole third base on the second pitch. Hamilton went on to break his own record in 2012 when he stole 155 bases in the Reds system, the most in a season in the history of professional baseball.

Daniel Renken’s Strikeout Streak & the 2011 Dragons PitchersOn June 29, 2011 at Fifth Third Field, Dayton starting pitcher Daniel Renken dominated the

Lansing Lugnuts. Renken struck out the final batter of the first inning, then struck out all three hitters in the second, third, and fourth. Ten consecutive batters were strikeout victims.

Austin Kearns’ Assault on the Record Books, 2000Dragons outfielder Austin Kearns enjoyed an eight-game stretch from July 17-July 24, 2000 that will likely never be matched in Midwest League competition. Kearns hit a home run in eight straight games and reached base in 14 consecutive plate appearances. Over the eight games, he hit 10 home runs (including one inside-the-park homer), drove in 20 runs, scored 19 times, and batted .720, going 18 for 25.

Donald Lutz’ Reverse Cycle, 2011On July 21, 2011 at Fifth Third Field, Dayton’s Donald Lutz became the first and only Dragons player to hit for the cyle, and he did it in reverse order over the first five innings of the game vs. the Peoria Chiefs. Lutz belted a home run in the first inning, connected on a triple in the second, hit a double in the third, and singled in the fifth in a 13-0 Dragons win. Lutz’s Dragons teammate, Ronald Torreyes, went 5 for 5 in the same game. In 2013, Lutz became the first player raised in Germany to reach the Major Leagues when he debuted with the Reds.

47-93 Overall 1st Half: 21-49; 2nd Half 26-44Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

The Dragons roster over the final two months of the season included Reds top prospect Nick Senzel, whose .567 slugging percentage was the highest in franchise history for any player appearing in a least 50 games. On August 13, the Dragons began a nine-game home winning streak that was one short of the all-time franchise record. The winning streak included numerous dramatic victories including an August 14 win against South Bend when five-foot-eight utility man Josciel Veras connected on a game-tying home run with one out in the bottom of the ninth to open the door to a Dragons win in the 10th.

After the Dragons playoff hopes came down to the final day of the regular season in 2014 before coming up one victory short, they came even closer in 2015 but again missed out on the post-season. The Dragons finished the first half with a 39-31 record, finishing in a virtual tie with the Great Lakes Loons for the East Division wildcard spot. But the Loons, who played two fewer games due to rain, finished at 38-30. Their .559 winning percentage was two points better than the Dragons mark of .557, just enough to keep the Dragons out of the playoffs. The Dragons enjoyed one of their finest home seasons ever at Fifth Third Field. They posted a home record of 43-27, including nine consecutive home victories from July 9-21. The Dragons notched 12 “walk-off” wins, three more than they had over the previous two seasons combined. From May 28-July 12, seven of the Dragons 14 home victories came in walk-off style, including six extra-inning wins. For the year, the Dragons were 8-0 in extra inning games at home. On June 13 at Fifth Third Field, three consecutive Dragons batters blasted home runs against the Beloit Snappers. In the second inning, Jose Ortiz, Jimmy Pickens, and Luis Gonzalez all hit home runs over a stretch of four total pitches. Starting pitcher Tyler Mahle enjoyed a sensational year with the Dragons, earning Cincinnati Reds Minor League Player of the Year honors. He pitched in the mid-season Midwest League All-Star Game, then became the first starting pitcher in Dragons history to be named to the full-season MWL all-star team (one player per position). Mahle’s 2.43 ERA was the second best in franchise hise history. Mahle and fellow starting pitchers Jake Paulson, Wyatt Strahan, and Tejay Antone all finished in the top 10 in the league ERA rankings. Mahle, Antone and reliever Brian Hunter pitched in the MWL All-Star Game.

2015 Season Recap


The Dragons hopes of qualifying for post-season play ended on the last day of the regular season. The Dragons led the second half Eastern Division wildcard race by one-half game with two games to play, but split their final two contests to fall short of the playoffs. In 2014, Major League All-Stars Aroldis Chapman and Brandon Phillips played for the Dragons on injury rehab assignments. On July 10, the Dragons made their first-ever appearance on national television when they were selected by CBS Sports Network for the MiLB Game of the Week at Fifth Third Field. For the first time in franchise history, the Dragons roster included four first round draft picks (RHP Nick Travieso, OF Phillip Ervin, RHP Nick Howard, and SS Alex Blandino). The Dragons were represented in the Midwest League All-Star Game by Travieso, RHP Sal Romano, LHP Ismael Guillon, and SS Carlton Daal.

2014 Season Recap



The Dragons narrowly missed out on a post-season berth as the race went down to the final week of the second half. The strength of the team was defense as the Dragons set a club record for fewest errors in a season with 137 over 139 games. The Dragons put together an incredible string of comeback wins at Fifth Third Field from July 17-30, going 8-2. All eight wins were comeback victories, including two grand slams that gave the team the lead in their final at-bat; two walk-off home runs; and one win in which the Dragons came back from an 8-1 deficit. A walk-off grand slam by Seth Mejias-Brean on July 18 followed three days later by Jesse Winker’s walk-off homer were two of the most dramatic victories. Based on his season in Dayton, Mejias-Brean earned the Reds Minor League Player of the Year award. The Dragons hosted the 49th Midwest League All-Star Game at Fifth Third Field on June 18. Stephenson, Winker, Zach Vincej, Sal Romano, Alejandro Chacin, Ben Klimesh, Drew Cisco, and Sean Lucas were all selected to play. Major Leaguers Johnny Cueto and Ryan Ludwick both played for the Dragons on injury rehabilitation assignments prior to their return to active duty with the Reds.

2013 Season Recap



The Dragons finished in eighth place in both halves in 2012. Second baseman Ryan Wright represented the club in the Midwest League All-Star Game. The final week of the regular season featured the return to Dayton of Reds all-star Joey Votto when he joined the Dragons for three games on a Major League rehabilitation assignment. The former N.L. MVP became arguably the most decorated player ever to wear a Midwest League uniform when he played for the Dragons, the same season in which he had started at first base in the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. On July 4 vs. South Bend at Fifth Third Field, the first eight Dragons batters in the first inning all reached base and scored. The Dragons scored four more runs in the second inning and led 12-1 after two, winning 17-4 and setting a club record with 24 hits. It was a year of honors for the Dragons franchise. In March, Street & Smith’s SportsBusiness Journal selected the Dragons as one of five finalists for their national “Team of the Year” award. The Dragons became the first Minor League team in any sport to be chosen as a finalist. Then after the season, the Dragons were awarded the John H.

2012 Season Recap


The Dragons finished in eighth place in both halves in 2012. Second baseman Ryan Wright represented the club in the Midwest League All-Star Game. The final week of the regular season featured the return to Dayton of Reds all-star Joey Votto when he joined the Dragons for three games on a Major League rehabilitation assignment. The former N.L. MVP became arguably the most decorated player ever to wear a Midwest League uniform when he played for the Dragons, the same season in which he had started at first base in the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. On July 4 vs. South Bend at Fifth Third Field, the first eight Dragons batters in the first inning all reached base and scored. The Dragons scored four more runs in the second inning and led 12-1 after two, winning 17-4 and setting a club record with 24 hits. It was a year of honors for the Dragons franchise. In March, Street & Smith’s SportsBusiness Journal selected the Dragons as one of five finalists for their national “Team of the Year” award. The Dragons became the first Minor League team in any sport to be chosen as a finalist. Then after the season, the Dragons were awarded the John H. Johnson President’s Award, the top honor in Minor League Baseball.

83-57 Overall 1st Half: 35-35; 2nd Half 48-22Midwest League Eastern Division Second Half Champions

The Dragons enjoyed a milestone season in 2011. They garned national attention when they broke the all-time sports record for consecutive sold-out dates on July 9, registering their 815th straight sell-out. The event was covered by CNN, ESPN, the New York Times, Sports Illustrated, the Wall Street Journal, and hundreds of other media outlets. Dragons owners Magic Johnson and Archie Griffin and former Dragons (current Reds) Drew Stubbs, Chris Heisey, and Logan Ondrusek were part of a special celebration on July 23.

On the field, the Dragons set a franchise record with 83 wins and won the second half division title by going 48-22. They lost in the first round of the playoffs to Lansing, two-games-to-one. The Dragons became the first Midwest League team in 16 years to lead the league in both team batting and team pitching, setting club records in both categories. They were just the second MWL since 1969 to lead the league in both runs scored and fewest runs allowed. Dragons pitchers broke the league record in strikeouts.

Perhaps the most memorable element of the Dragons 2011 season was the base stealing exploits of shortstop Billy Hamilton, who swiped 103 bags on the year to break the Reds organizational record. Hamilton and relief pitcher Drew Hayes were selected as full-season Midwest League All-Stars. Starting pitchers Josh Smith and Daniel Corcino and first baseman Dominic D’Anna represented the Dragons in the MWL All-Star Game and Smith led the league in both victories and strikeouts.

The Dragons 2009 season was highlighted by the historic Reds Futures Game at Fifth Third Field on April 4th. This first-of-its-kind event served as the final ‘09 exhibition game for the Cincinnati Reds as they battled a collection of the top prospects in the Reds organization from the A, AA, and AAA levels. The season also featured the return to Dayton of Major League star Joey Votto, who joined the Dragons for a two-game rehab stint in June. Votto belted a home run in his first swing with the Dragons on June 20th. The Dragons got off to a rough start on the field in 2009, suffering through a club-record 11-game losing streak that left them with a mark of 1-12 after 13 games. But the club improved throughout the season and fell just one game short of qualifying for the playoffs for the third straight year. Left-handed starting pitcher Matt Fairel (8-5, 2.93) and catcher Kevin Coddington (.278, 2 HR, 42 RBI, 11 SB) represented the Dragons in the Midwest League All-Star Game in June. Shortstop Miguel Rojas was named “Best Defensive Infielder” in the league in a poll of MWL managers by Baseball America.

2009 Season Recap

66-72 Overall 1st Half: 28-40; 2nd Half 38-32Midwest League Eastern Division 2nd Half Wild card

For the first time in seven years, the Dragons advanced to the semi-finals of the Midwest League playoffs. The club reached the post-season for the second straight year, taking advantage of a club-record 10-game home winning streak in July to complete the second half with a 38-32 record and earn the Eastern Division wildcard slot. The Dragons swept the Lansing Lugnuts in two straight games in the best-of-three first round of the playoffs before losing to South Bend in two straight in the semi-finals. Two Dragons players, third baseman Brandon Waring and shortstop Zack Cozart, were selected as the best players at their positions in the league on the Post-Season All-Star team. Cozart was also selected as the league’s best defensive infielder by Baseball America. Two of the top prospects in the Reds organization spent parts of the 2008 campaign with the Dragons. Infielder Todd Frazier started the year with the team and third baseman Neftali Soto finished the season with the Dragons.

2008 Season Recap

78-62 Overall 1st Half: 44-26; 2nd Half 34-36Midwest League Eastern Division 1st Half Champions

Donnie Scott returned to the Miami Valley and once again led Dayton to the postseason. The Dragons got off to a blistering start, winning their first nine games and 24 of their first 29 en route to a 44-26 record and first half championship. Infielders Justin Turner, Chris Valaika, and Juan Francisco were chosen to start the Midwest League All-Star Game for the Eastern Division, and were joined on the squad by outfielder Drew Stubbs, and pitchers Rafael Gonzalez, Marcos Mateo, Pedro Viola, and Sean Watson. With a strong Dayton influence, the East beat the West, 8-2. With the loss of players due to promotion and a playoff berth already wrapped up, the Dragons finished the second half at 34-36, 11 games behind the West Michigan Whitecaps. In the playoffs, Dayton took game one on the road over the South Bend Silver Hawks, but lost two straight at Fifth Third Field to lose the first round series. After the season was complete, the Dayton Dragons landed three players on the Midwest League Post-Season All-Star Team with second baseman Justin Turner, shortstop Chris Valaika, and third baseman Juan Francisco. Over the course of the season, 41 different players saw playing time with the Dragons. A total of 585,348 fans filed into Fifth Third Field to once again lead the Midwest League in total attendance and the consecutive sellout streak reached 565 games.

2007 Season Recap


Under first year manager Billy Gardner, the Dragons posted a 67-73 record, their best since 2002. Their 35-35 1st half record placed them in a tie for 3rd place in the Midwest League Eastern Division, 7.5 games back of eventual champion West Michigan. Injuries, promotions, and trades left the Dragons fighting for the playoffs, eventually fading from the race and finishing 32-38 in the second half. RHP Johnny Cueto posted an 8-1 record with a 2.59 ERA before being promoted to Sarasota, including throwing the first ever Dragons no-hitter in a rain-shortened game at Wisconsin. RHP Carlos Fisher led the team with 12 wins, and LHP Travis Wood recorded a season high 133 strikeouts. RHP Zach Ward’s 2.29 ERA set a new Dragons record, but he finished the season with the Beloit Snappers after being traded at the deadline for major leaguer Kyle Lohse.

2006 Season Recap


The Dragons missed out on the playoffs for the third consecutive year, finishing the regular season at 60-79 overall. Dayton limped out of the gate with a 7-14 record in the month of April, and would never hit the .500 mark on the season. The Dragons finished 30-40 in the first half of the season, 11.0 games behind Eastern Division champion South Bend. Dayton opened up the second half of the season with three consecutive victories over Fort Wayne to put themselves in first place, a post they would only occupy for five days. After the hot start, the rest of the season was very similar to the first half as the Dragons closed the second half with a 30-39 record, 12.5 games behind South Bend. All total, the Dragons used 48 different players during the 2005 campaign as injuries and promotions affected the day-to-day lineup of the team. Several Dragons players earned promotions during the 2005 season: Drew Anderson made the jump from single-A Dayton all the way to AAA Louisville; John Purdom went to AA Chattanooga; while Evan Conley, Phil Gentry, Blake Hendley, and Brad Morenko finished up the year in high-A Sarasota. Fans continued to support their Dragons in large numbers in 2005. A total of 572,003 fans made their way into Fifth Third Field to once again lead the Midwest League and all of Class-A baseball.

2005 Season Recap


The Dragons struggled to a 48-92 record under first-year manager Alonzo Powell, failing to qualify for the playoffs for the second consecutive season. The Dragons finished 27-43 in the first-half of the season, 15.0 games behind Eastern Division winning South Bend. The second-half of the season started on a high note for the Dragons as the team picked up a second half opening game win over Lansing in extra innings to mark the first (and only) time all season that Dayton was over .500 in a half of baseball in 2004. The Dragons finished the second half at 21-49, 19.0 games behind first place West Michigan.

2004 Season Recap


In his third year as manager of the Dragons, Donnie Scott fielded the youngest team in the four-year history of the club. The Dragons went 35-35 in the first-half, six games behind division-winning Fort Wayne. In the second half, the Dragons were tied for the Eastern Division’s top spot as late as mid-July, but injuries to key personnel in Dayton and throughout the Cincinnati system impacted the Dragons roster. The team finished the second half with a 26-43 record, 17.5 games behind first place South Bend. Seven Dragons played in the Midwest League All- Star Game including Todd Coffey, Juan Frias, Ryan Hanigan, Kevin Howard, Domonique Lewis, Mark Schramek, and Eddy Valdez. Future NL MVP Joey Votto spent the first half of the season with the Dragons before heading to Rookie-level Billings for the second half. He would return to Dayton in 2004.

2003 Season Recap

73-67 Overall 1st Half: 32-38; 2nd Half 41-29Midwest League Eastern Division 2nd Half Wild Card

The Dragons, under manager Donnie Scott, never quite got on track in the season’s first half and struggled to a 32-38 fifth-place finish in the Midwest League’s Eastern Division, 10 games behind the Michigan Battle Cats. The Dragons got complete game pitching performances from Bobby Basham and Andy Boutwell to win the final two games of the first half. They opened the second half by winning their first 11 games to build a 13-game winning streak, the longest in franchise history and the third longest in all of professional baseball in 2002 en route to a 41-29 second half record.

Basham fired three shutouts and four complete games among his 13 starts, posting a 1.64 ERA. Reliever Nate Cotton notched a club-record 34 saves. Strong pitching and the hitting of Edwin Encarnacion, Randy Ruiz, Noochie Varner and Chris Williamson carried the Dragons to a second-half playoff spot. Dayton fell to the West Michigan Whitecaps in the opening round of the playoffs, two-games-to-none. Varner, who hit .309 with 49 extra base hits and 37 stolen bases, actually played against the Dragons in the playoffs after the Reds traded him to the Detroit Tigers organization with a week to go in the regular season.

2001 Season Recap

70-67 Overall 1st Half: 31-36; 2nd Half 39-31Midwest League Eastern Division 2nd Half Wild Card

Baseball returned to the Miami Valley for the first time in 51 years as the Dayton Dragons opened Fifth Third Field for an historic opening night on April 27. Manager Freddie Benavides led Dayton to a playoff berth in its first season by virtue of capturing the MWL Eastern Division’s Second-Half wild card. The Dragons advanced to the playoff semi-finals, earning an opening round win over West Michigan, two-games-to-one, before losing in two games to the Michigan Battle Cats in the second round. Austin Kearns was named the MWL’s Co-Prospect of the Year (with Albert Pujols) and a post season all-star. He led the league in home runs and RBI while batting .306. Right-hander Travis Thompson joined the Dragons from the Clinton Lumber Kings in late May (in an unusual situation, the Reds had two affiliates in the same league in 2000) and earned 11 wins with Dayton after notching five in Clinton.

2017 Midwest League Outstanding Single-Game Performances

Baseball’s Greatest CombackOn May 7, 2014 at Community Field in Burlington, Iowa, the Clinton Lumber Kings pulled off what is believed to be the biggest comeback in Minor League Baseball history. The Burlington Bees led the Lumber Kings 17-1 at the end of five innings. Clinton scored six runs in the sixth and added five more in the eighth to pull to within five at 17-12. The Lumber Kings then scored once in the ninth and loaded the bases with one out when Marcus Littlewood connected on a grand slam home run to tie the game at 17-17. The game eventually went to extra innings. In the top of the 12th, Clinton broke the tie with three more runs and held on to win 20-17, overcoming a 16-run deficit.

Dragons “On The Air”

Dragons MVP ProgramThe Dragons elementary school MVP Program includes 1,116 fourth and fifth grade classrooms in 183 schools over 48 school districts. About 34,000 children participate. The program is in its 13th year in 2018. The Dragons MVP Program presented by Bob Evans is also made possible by the generous support of CollegeAdvantage, WDTN TV, and Dayton’s CW. The program is completely free of charge to the schools.

How does the Dragons School MVP Program work? The teacher in each of the classrooms over a five-county area (Clark, Greene, Miami, Montgomery, and Warren) selects five MVP’s based on the teacher’s judgment of performance, effort, citizenship, and improvement. The five MVPs selected by their teacher in each classroom receive four tickets to a Dragons game, tickets to a special Field Day event at the stadium during the season, an MVP certificate and a Dragons MVP hat. Dragons players and mascots visit selected classrooms over the course of the season. Additionally, 16 Dragons games during the season are designated as “MVP Game Nights.” On those nights, one MVP gets to throw out the ceremonial first pitch to the game, another does an on-air interview during the Dragons game broadcast on Fox Sports 980, and another participates in an entertainment skit during the Dragons game.

Hometown Heroes Program Five times during the 2018 baseball season, the Dragons will partner with the Dayton Development Coalition and Leidos for a season-long tribute to all service men and women past and present. There will be four special spotlights (April 11, May 8, June 24, and July 15) that will each highlight a different aspect or organization involved in the military. The season-long celebration will wrap up with a Celebration Night on August 18.

Home Run for Life Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield and the Dragons team up to provide kids battling serious medical conditions with once-in-a-lifetime opportunities during Dragons games. Each honoree takes an honorary home run “lap” around the bases of Fifth Third Field during a game and receives an honorary bat from Dragons manager Luis Bolivar. Dates are April 18, May 30, June 27, July 11, and July 25.

Community All-StarsThe Dragons partner with Vectren on the Community All-Stars Program, honoring individuals and organizations who have gone above and beyond to improve the quality of life in the Miami Valley.
