Dragons All-Time Managers Freddie 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. They failed to qualify for the playoffs in either year, losing out to South Bend by one game for the final wild card 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 wild card race with two games to play but split their final two contests to fall just short. In 2015, the Dragons lost the first half wild card 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: 2017-2019 (187-231; 3-3 post-season) The Dragons earned a spot in the 2017 playoffs for the first time since 2011 and were a first half qualifier for the first time since 2007. The Dragons upset West Michigan, the East Division winner in both halves, in the first round of the playoffs before losing to Fort Wayne in three games in the second round. It was the first time in franchise history that the Dragons reached a decisive game three of the semi-finals.

The Dragons produced a nine-game winning streak in 2018 and a 10-gamer in 2019 but posted losing records both seasons.

Jose Moreno: 2021 (65-55; Did not qualify for post-season) The Dragons returned to action after COVID-19 forced the cancellation of the entire 2020 season.

The start of the season was delayed until early May and shortened to 120 games, but Moreno led the Dragons to an excellent year. The team finished with a record of 65-55 (.542), posting their best winning percentage since 2011. The Dragons were the co-champions of the East Division but missed the playoffs due to an unusual format change that allowed the teams with the two best overall records into the postseason, regardless of division. There was no split-season in 2021, but the Dragons did hold the lead in the East at the midpoint of the schedule for a “mythical” first half division title.

2021 Season Review After the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancelation of the entire 2020 Minor League Baseball season, the Dragons welcomed baseball and their fans back to Day Air Ballpark in 2021. The start of the season was delayed until May 4, and the Dragons home opener took place on May 11.

years.

The return of professional baseball in Dayton brought many changes to the league and the industry in general. Major League Baseball completed a restructuring of the Minor Leagues prior to the 2021 season, including the contraction of 42 affiliated teams. The league was now known as the High-A Central League after previously being referred to as the Midwest League. The league was reclassified to the “High-A” level of Minor League Baseball after being a “Low-A” league since the Dragons inception in 2000. The league was reduced from 16 teams to 12 (Burlington, Clinton, and Kane County were contracted; Bowling Green moved to new league). Each team in the High-A Central League was scheduled to play 120games (60 home games), down from 140 games in previous

The Dragons finished their 120-game season with a final record of 65-55, tied for first place with the Lake County Captains in the High-A Central League’s East Division. Their final winning percentage of 2021 of .542 was their highest in a season since the 2011 season, when the Dragons went 83-57 (.593). Two teams from the West Division, Quad Cities and Cedar Rapids, finished with the two best overall records in the league, earning slots in the post-season championship series. The Dragons playoff hopes ended on the nextto-last day of the season.

Prospects Aplenty: Shortstop Matt McLain, the Cincinnati Reds first round draft pick in 2021 out of UCLA, became the latest first rounder pick to play for the Dragons. Catcher Mat Nelson, the Reds 2021 supplemental first round pick (Competitive Balance-A; 35th overall pick) out of Florida State, also played for the Dragons.

Nine members of the 2021 Dragons were ranked in the end-of-season listing by MLB.com among the top20 prospects in the Reds organization, including McLain (#3), Graham Ashcraft (#6), Nelson (#9), Michael Siani (#11), Lyon Richardson (#13), Christian Roa (#14), Bryce Bonnin (#15), Ivan Johnson (#16), and Allan Cerda (#17).

Comeback Kids: On June 8 and 9, the Dragons won two games in two nights despite trailing by five or more runs in each game. For reference, they posted a total of six comeback wins in the previous five years combined (697 games) in games in which they had trailed by at least five runs. The June 8 win after trailing 7-0 matched the largest comeback for the Dragons over at least the last 15 seasons. The Dragons battled back to win six times after trailing by at least four runs in 2021. The Dragons most dramatic wins of the season came exactly one month apart, on May 15 and June 15, both at Day Air Ballpark. On May 15, the Dragons trailed Lansing 2-0 before Brian Rey hit a solo home run in the sixth inning, and Bren Spillane hit a two-run homer in the eighth to give the team a 3-2 lead. Dragons reliever Jake Gilbert then pitched out of a bases loaded, no out jam in the ninth to close out the victory. On June 15, the Dragons trailed Fort Wayne 4-1 going to the bottom of the ninth inning before rallying for four runs to win. The game-ender was a bases loaded, two-run double by Reniel Ozuna that brought in the tying and winning runs.

Jacob Hurtubise -

Hurtubise ignited the team’s offense in his first professional season after graduating from West Point. Hurtubise led the league in on-base percentage while also finishing in the top five in batting average, stolen bases, runs scored, and walks. The blazing fast Hurtubise played all three outfield positions and frequently served as the Dragons leadoff hitter. When the Dragons were playing their best, Hurtubise was usually creating havoc for the opposition.

Brian Rey - Rey won the High-A Central League Batter of the Week for the first week of the season, then duplicated the feat by winning the same honor in the season’s second week. At the end of the second week, Rey had played in 10 games and was batting .450 with six home runs, 16 RBI, 10 extra base hits, and an OPS of 1.467. Before the end of the third week of the season, Rey was promoted to Double-A Chattanooga. Rey was also named Cincinnati Reds Minor League Batter of the Month for the month of May.

2021 Season Review Matt McLain

– McLain, the Reds 2021 first round draft pick out of UCLA, joined the Dragons in early August and played in 29 games at shortstop, batting .273 with three home runs and 10 stolen bases.

Rockin’ Cotton: Dragons outfielder Quin Cotton enjoyed the biggest single game of the year for the Dragons. In a Dragons 15-4 win on June 5 at Lake County, Cotton went 4 for 6 with two home runs and six runs batted in. His 10 total bases in the game, and the six RBI, were season highs for a Dragons player in 2021.

Slamming: The Dragons connected on four grand slam home runs in 2021, including one in the first game of the year by Quincy McAfee on May 4 at Great Lakes. Alex McGarry (June 10 vs.

Great Lakes), Michael Siani (August 12 at Lansing), and Jonathan Willems (Sept. 12 at Lake County) also hit home runs with the bases loaded for the Dragons in 2021.

Firing Missiles: With a fastball that reached 99 mph, Dragons starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft put together an amazing stretch of four straight starts starting May 30 in which he did not allow an earned run. The streak totaled 23 innings and including 30 strikeouts and only six walks. Following the fourth start on June 17, Ashcraft was promoted to Double-A Chattanooga. He was named the Reds Minor League Pitcher of the Month for June.

Closing Strong: The Dragons finished the season by sweeping the Fort Wayne TinCaps in a six-game series. The six-game winning streak was the Dragons longest of the season. They outscored their opponent during the streak, 46-23.

Never, Ever, Ever

On May 22, 2018, Dayton’s Jeter Downs ended the first game of a doubleheader with a walk-off RBI single, then led off the bottom of the first inning in the second game with a home run. Downs had two consecutive Dayton at-bats on the same day (no other Dragons player batted between his two at-bats), driving in runs in both. Jason Stark of The Athletic checked with Elias Sports Bureau, the official statistics service for Major League Baseball, and found that, at the big league level, no player in baseball history has ever had two consecutive at-bats for the same team on the same day and recorded RBI in both at bats.

The postponed game on June 26 was made up on August 6.

The All-Time Greatest Ending

On July 18, 2013 at Day Air Ballpark, 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.

On 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.

The First Nine-Inning No-Hitter in Dragons History

On May 20, 2017 at Day Air Ballpark, 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.

Billy Hamilton’s Season for the Ages

Billy Hamilton became a Day Air Ballpark 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 Pitchers

On June 29, 2011 at Day Air Ballpark, 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. Renken finished the night with 14 strikeouts over six shutout innings to tie a club record. He allowed only two hits and one walk for the win. Over the 2011 season, Dragons pitchers broke the all-time Midwest League record by striking out 1,292 hitters, led by Josh Smith, the MWL’s strikeout king that year, with 166 to break the club record. Smith won 14 games and was the starting pitcher in the all-star game.

Austin Kearns’ Assault on the Record Books, 2000

Dragons outfielder Austin Kearns enjoyed an eight-game stretch from July 17-July 24, 2000 that will likely never be matched in the Midwest League. Kearns hit a home run in eight straight games and reached base in 14 consecutive plate appearances. Over the eight games, he hit 10 homers (including one inside-the-parker), drove in 20 runs, scored 19 times, and batted .720, going 18 for 25. For the year, Kearns was named Midwest League co-Prospect of the Year, along with Peoria’s Albert Pujols.

Donald Lutz’ Reverse Cycle, 2011

On July 21, 2011 at Day Air Ballpark, 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.

Jose Siri’s Hitting Streak

Jose Siri produced a Midwest League record 39-game hitting streak from June 22-August 3, 2017. On July 31, Siri broke the 40-year-old Midwest League of 35 straight games set by Waterloo’s Tony Toups in 1977 with a hit on an 0-2 pitch in his final at-bat of the game at Fort Wayne.

Siri batted .341 with 13 home runs, 32 RBI, 12 doubles, 3 triples, 8 stolen bases, and a .671 slugging percentage during the streak, hitting .461 on balls in play. Siri also had a 50-game on-base streak from June 15-August 12 that was the longest in Minor League Baseball in 2017.

Siri’s streak received massive attention with video highlights on Reds television broadcasts and radio replays on the Reds Radio Network.

Bobby Basham: On a Roll

In 2002, Dragons starting pitcher Bobby Basham enjoyed a stretch of three consecutive starts that will likely never be repeated in Dayton franchise history. Basham not only made three straight scoreless starts on June 23, June 28, and July 3, he pitched a nine-inning complete game in each outing. Over those 27 shutout innings, Basham walked just two and struck out 34 while surrendering only 11 hits. Basham is the only pitcher in Dragons history to toss three shutouts in his career with the team, and he did it in three straight starts. Basham posted a 1.64 ERA in 13 starts with the Dragons in 2002, the best ERA in team history for a pitcher with at least 85 innings.

Dragons History Dayton Dragons Historical Timeline February 23, 1999: At the Crown Plaza ballroom in downtown Dayton, an official announcement was made that final approval had been given by Major League Baseball to bring a professional baseball team to Dayton, clearing the way for construction to begin on a new ballpark at Patterson Blvd., and Monument Ave. May 3, 1999: About 11 months prior to the first game and long before the construction of the ballpark was completed, an announcement was made at the Courthouse Square that the new professional baseball team in Dayton would be known as the Dayton Dragons.

April 6, 2000: The Dragons won at Lansing 7-2 in their first official game. The game was the start of a 16-game, five-city road trip for the Dragons as the ballpark was completed in Dayton. They finished the trip with a record of 10-6.

April 27, 2000: The Dragons opened Day Air Ballpark by defeating the Cedar Rapids Kernels, 4-3.

Austin Kearns scored the first Dayton run, Casey Bookout hit the first Dayton home run, and starting pitcher Jim Manias earned the first Dayton victory.

July 20, 2000: Dayton’s Austin Kearns began a streak of reaching base in 14 consecutive plate appearances that continued over the next three games. Kearns had home runs in all three games including two each on July 21 and 22.

July 24, 2000: Dayton outfielder Austin Kearns hit a home run in his eighth consecutive game, a new league record. Kearns hit home runs in each game from July 17-24 and over those eight games, he batted .720 (18 for 25) with 10 home runs, 20 RBI, and 19 runs scored.

May 19, 2001: For the first time in Dragons history, the team won a game on a walk-off home run.

Samone Peters blasted a home run to break a 3-3 tie in the bottom of the ninth and give the Dragons a walk-off 4-3 victory over Kane County at Day Air Ballpark.

June 10, 2001: Dayton’s slugging star, Samone Peters, blasted a “walk-off” grand slam home run to break a 2-2 tie and give the Dragons a 6-2 victory over Beloit at Day Air Ballpark. It is one of only two walk-off grand slams in Dragons history (the other came on 7/18/13). Peters hit 28 home runs that season, still a single-season club record.

June 19, 2001: In their second season of existence, the Dragons hosted the Midwest League All-Star Game at Day Air Ballpark. Notable players who participated included Miguel Cabrera, Justin Morneau, and Adrian Gonzalez, who would each go on to play in numerous Major League all-star games.

August 7, 2001: Dragons pitcher Josh Hall struck out 14 batters in a 7-4 win at Cedar Rapids. The single-game strikeout total is tied for the most in Dragons history and ranks first in Dragons road games.

August 9, 2001: Dragons outfielder Wily Mo Pena became the first Dayton player ever to hit three home runs in one game. Pena hit three homers at Cedar Rapids and also added a single, collecting 13 total bases, which is tied for the club single-game record with Austin Kearns. The Dragons scored 21 runs in the game, also still a club record.

June 15, 2002: The Dragons defeated Burlington 8-1 to begin a 13-game winning streak that has never been matched in team history. Wandel Campana hit two home runs and Bobby Basham allowed just one run in eight innings to lead the way. The winning streak included the first 11 games of the second half after two wins to close the first half, propelling the Dragons into the playoffs.

June 23, 2002: Dragons pitcher Bobby Basham began an amazing streak of three consecutive nineinning shutouts when he beat South Bend 5-0 at Day Air Ballpark. Basham also fired nine-inning shutouts on June 28 and July 3 of that year, an accomplishment that will likely never be matched. There have been only three nine-inning shutouts thrown by Dragons pitchers since 2008, and none since 2017.

April 15, 2004: Dragons shortstop Luis Bolivar enjoyed perhaps his finest individual moment as a player in what eventually became a long career in uniform for the team. Bolivar smashed a walk-off three-run home run in the bottom of the 10th inning to defeat Lansing 4-1, just the third walk-off homer in Dragons history at the time. Bolivar played two years for the Dragons, served as a hitting coach for three more, and then managed the club for three seasons from 2017-19.

Big Inning Month

The Dragons have scored 11 runs in a single inning four times, which is the club record.

Amazingly, three of the four came in the same month--July, 2007--and two of them came within a three-day window. The Dragons scored 11 runs in the 4th inning on July 3, 2007, and 11 in the 6th two days later on July 5, both at home against Great Lakes. Incredibly, they were shutout in the middle game on July 4, as Clayton Kershaw fired four scoreless innings for the Loons. The Dragons then scored 11 in the 4th on July 17 when Logan Parker hit two three-run homers in the same frame as the team hit a club record four home runs in the inning.

Dragons History April 29, 2004: Dragons outfielder Chris Dickerson drew five walks in a game at Lansing to set a club record that still stands.

April 30, 2004: The Dragons scored 11 runs in the top of the ninth inning to erase a 7-1 deficit and win at Lansing, 12-7. The six-run deficit is the largest the Dragons have ever overcome in the final inning of a game.

Chris Dickerson hit a three-run home run to pull the Dragons close, and two batters later, Joey Votto hit a game-tying homer. Ryan Fry also had a home run in the inning. The Dragons sent 15 batters to the plate in the frame. Their 10 hits and 11 runs in an inning are still club records.

July 2, 2004: The Dragons played their longest game in franchise history, an 18-inning marathon at South Bend that lasted five hours, 33 minutes. The Dragons won the game 7-6. Dayton scored one run in the top of the ninth inning to tie the game at 6-6. The teams then played eight consecutive scoreless innings before the Dragons scored in the top of the 18th to take a 7-6 lead, and Dragons reliever Jean Granado worked a scoreless bottom of the 18th. Among those Dayton players who played the entire 18 innings were future Reds Joey Votto and Chris Dickerson, and future Dragons manager Luis Bolivar.

May 25, 2005: Starting pitcher Homer Bailey, who would go on to fire two no-hitters in the Major Leagues, enjoyed his fourth straight scoreless start with the Dragons in a 3-2 win at West Michigan. Bailey threw 17 innings during the four games and struck out 21 while surrendering just seven hits.

May 31, 2005: Dragons third baseman Jeremiah Piepkorn belted a walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning at Day Air Ballpark to give the Dragons a 4-3 win over South Bend. It was just the fourth walkoff homer in Dragons history at the time. The homer capped off a great month for Piepkorn, who batted .341 with four home runs and 20 RBI in 22 games in May for the Dragons.

December 1, 2005: Dragons President & General Manager Robert Murphy was named by The Sporting News as the Minor League Baseball Executive of the Year.

May 8, 2006: Jay Bruce, a 19-year-old outfielder who had been the Reds first round draft pick in 2005, connected on his first career two-homer game as the Dragons defeated Cedar Rapids, 10-4 at Day Air Ballpark. Bruce drove in four runs in the game.

May 13, 2006: Johnny Cueto fired the first no-hitter by a Dragons pitcher in team history. It came in the second game of a doubleheader in Appleton, Wisconsin, 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.

March 31, 2007: The Cincinnati Reds and Florida Marlins met in an exhibition game at Day Air Ballpark. The Reds lineup featured future Hall-of-Famer Ken Griffey Jr. and former Dragons Adam Dunn, Edwin Encarnacion, and Todd Coffey.

April 18, 2007: The Dragons defeated Quad Cities 5-2, keyed by a pair of doubles by shortstop Chris Valaika. The win gave the Dragons a 9-0 record on the year, their best start in franchise history. They eventually won the East Division first half title with a record of 44-26, which still ranks as their best first half victory total and winning percentage.

May 6, 2007: Dragons lead-off hitter Drew Stubbs blasted a tie-breaking home run with one out in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Dragons a 2-1 win over Kane County. Stubbs had been the Reds first round pick in 2006 out of the University of Texas. The win gave the Dragons an amazing record of 22-4 after their first 26 games.

June 5, 2007: In a game that featured dramatic ninth inning home runs by both teams, the Dragons defeated Lansing 5-4. The Lugnuts tied the game with a home run in the top of the ninth inning before Dayton catcher Eddie Rodriguez ended it with a “walk-off” homer in the bottom of the ninth. The Dragons were on their way to winning the first half East Division championship.

July 17, 2007: Dragons first baseman Logan Parker hit two three-run home runs in the same inning in a record setting bottom of the fourth against Cedar Rapids at Day Air Ballpark. The Dragons scored 11 runs in the inning to tie a club record (they have scored 11 in an inning four times, including three times in that month of July in 2007). The Dragons set a club record with four home runs in the inning.

Fernando Encarnacion and Justin Turner also hit home runs in the fourth.

August 19, 2007: Dayton third baseman Juan Francisco became just the second player in franchise history to hit three home runs in a game in an 8-7 Dragons win over Lansing.

Sept. 2, 2007: For the first time in Dragons history, three consecutive Dayton batters connected on home runs. In a game against South Bend at Day Air Ballpark, Todd Frazier, Jason Louwsma, and Denis Phipps hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in the second inning. The Dragons repeated this accomplishment on 6/13/15.

August 19, 2007: Dayton third baseman Juan Francisco became just the second player in franchise history to hit three home runs in a game in an 8-7 Dragons win over Lansing.

Sept. 2, 2007: For the first time in Dragons history, three consecutive Dayton batters connected on home runs.

April 4, 2009: The Dragons hosted the Cincinnati Reds in the first “Futures Game” at Day Air Ballpark.

The Futures team included Todd Frazier, Drew Stubbs, Zack Cozart, Chris Heisey, and Devin Mesoraco, who would all take on key roles with the Reds over the next several years.

June 20, 2009: Reds star first baseman Joey Votto returned to the Dragons on a Major League injury rehab assignment, five years after he had last played for Dayton. Votto cranked a long home run in his first at-bat in the first inning against West Michigan at Day Air Ballpark and went 2 for 4 in the game.

He played one more game, on June 21, before ending his rehab assignment.

July 5, 2009: Dayton outfielder Byron Wiley became the third player in franchise history to hit three home runs in one game. Wiley’s big game came in a wild contest at West Michigan in which the clubs combined to score 31 runs, most ever in a Dragons game.

August 8, 2009: Dayton’s Kevyn Feiner connected on four doubles in one game at Lansing to tie a league record and establish a new franchise record that still stands.

April 8, 2010: The Dragons played 11 innings on opening night, defeating Lansing 6-5 as shortstop Didi Gregorius delivered a game-winning single to drive in Kevin Coddington with one out in the bottom of the 11th.

July 25, 2010: The Dragons and Quad Cities River Bandits played the longest game ever at Day Air Ballpark, a 16-inning contest that lasted five hours, 21 minutes (it was the Dragons longest home game and second longest overall behind 7/2/2004 at South Bend). The Sunday afternoon game began at 4:02 p.m. and was tied 5-5 after nine innings. The game was still tied when a Quad Cities batter hit what initially appeared to be a routine, high fly ball to center field with two outs and the bases loaded in the top of the 16th inning, but the Dragons outfielder lost the ball in the twilight sky just minutes after an 8:56 p.m. sunset, allowing all three runners to score as Quad Cities won, 8-5.

Sept. 6, 2010: The Dragons completed their season with a home attendance total of 597,433, breaking their own record for the Single-A classification of professional baseball. The record continues to stand.

June 29, 2011: Dragons starting pitcher Daniel Renken struck out 10 consecutive batters at Day Air Ballpark against the Lansing Lugnuts. Renken finished the night with 14 strikeouts over six shutout innings to tie a club record set by Josh Hall on August 7, 2001.

July 9, 2011: The Dragons enjoyed their 815th consecutive sold-out date at Day Air Ballpark to break the all-time record in North America, surpassing the total of 814 by the Portland Trail Blazers of the NBA. Donald Lutz hit a home run in a 4-1 Dragons win over South Bend.

July 21, 2011: Dayton’s Donald Lutz became the only Dragons player ever to hit for the cycle, doing it in reverse order against Peoria when he had a home run, triple, double, and single, all before the end of the fifth inning. Dragons second baseman Ronald Torreyes had five hits in the same game to tie a club record.

July 23, 2011: A crowd of 8,859 at Day Air Ballpark helped the Dragons celebrate their new all-time record for consecutive sold-out dates, officially set two weeks earlier on July 9. NBA hall of famer Magic Johnson and former Ohio State star Archie Griffin, both Dragons part-owners at the time, were on hand along with a long list of dignitaries that also included Minor League Baseball president Pat O’Conner, former Reds MVP George Foster, Midwest League President George Spelius, and Congressman Mike Turner. The Dragons won the game 7-6 over Burlington, breaking a 6-6 tie in the bottom of the ninth inning when Billy Hamilton scored from second base on a sacrifice bunt and a throwing error.

Sept. 3, 2011: Dragons shortstop Billy Hamilton stole three bases at Day Air Ballpark against Lansing to give him 100 for the season. He finished the year with 103, the most ever (at the time) in the Cincinnati Reds organization. Hamilton moved up the ladder in the Reds system in 2012 and stole 155 to establish a new professional baseball record.

Sept. 8, 2011: Donald Lutz had three hits including a two-run home run to lead the Dragons to a 7-3 win in the opener to the first round of the playoffs with Lansing at Day Air Ballpark. The Dragons lost the next two games on the road to the Lugnuts, ending their season after a franchise best 83-57 record during the regular season. The 83 wins still stand as a club record.

April 27, 2012: For the only time in franchise history, the Dragons played a game in a Major League ballpark. The Dragons and the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers met at Miller Park in Milwaukee. The roof was closed despite warm spring temperatures of 67 degrees. The Dragons fell to the Rattlers, 3-0.

July 4, 2012: The first eight Dragons batters in the first inning reached base and scored in a 17-4 Dayton win over South Bend at Day Air Ballpark. The Dragons led 12-1 after two innings and led 17-1 after six. The Dragons set a club record with 24 hits. Kyle Waldrop and Joe Terry each had four hits, with Terry reaching that total despite not being in the starting lineup.

August 28, 2012: Joey Votto became arguably the most decorated player ever to appear in a Midwest League game when he began a three-game injury rehabilitation assignment with the Dragons. Votto stepped onto the field at Day Air Ballpark having already won a National League Most Valuable Player award and had started at first base in the Major League All-Star Game just six weeks earlier. Votto continued his rehab assignment in Dayton on August 29 and 31 before eventually rejoining the Reds in September.

June 18, 2013: The Dragons hosted the Midwest League All-Star Game at Day Air Ballpark for the second time in franchise history. Dragons outfielder Jesse Winker was a starter for the East Division team and won the pre-game Home Run Derby. The top prospects in the game included shortstop Carlos Correa and outfielder Byron Buxton.

July 18, 2013: 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 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 anywhere in the Reds organization in five years.

April 14, 2014: The Dragons jumped out to one of their best starts in franchise history, building an 11-0 lead over Clinton by the end of the second inning at Day Air Ballpark. Dayton went on to win the game 13-5, led by catcher Joe Hudson, who had two doubles and four RBI. May 1, 2014: Reds all-star relief pitcher Aroldis Chapman, considered to be among the hardest throwers in baseball history, made an injury rehabilitation assigned for the Dragons, starting the game at Day Air Ballpark against Lansing. Chapman threw a pitch at 101 mph, setting an official stadium record that was not broken until Hunter Greene reached 102 mph in 2018. Chapman faced three batters, retiring all of them while notching two strikeouts. He threw another scoreless inning for the Dragons two days later at Lake County.

Sept. 1, 2014: Switch-hitting Dragons infielder Ronald Bueno achieved a baseball rarity, getting two hits in the same inning (the third), including one from the left side of the plate and one from the right.

The Dragons won at Lake County 13-4 in the final game of the season.

June 13, 2015: For the second time in Dragons history, three consecutive Dayton batters connected on home runs. In a game against Beloit at Day Air Ballpark, Jose Ortiz, Jimmy Pickens, and Luis Gonzalez hit back-to-back-to-back home runs in the second inning.

August 15, 2015: Dragons outfielder Aristides Aquino lined a walk-off two-run home run in the bottom of the 10th inning at Day Air Ballpark to give the Dragons a 6-4 win over Burlington. It was the 19th walk-off home run in Dragons history, and the most recent one to date (through the 2021 season).

August 22, 2016: In a contest remembered as the “skunk game,” the Dragons roared back from a late seven-run deficit to defeat Lansing in one of the most dramatic comebacks in franchise history. The Dragons trailed 10-3 in the sixth inning before cutting the deficit to 10-9 in the eighth. With one out in the bottom of the ninth, a skunk emerged from near the first base dugout and ran across the outfield, causing a delay of about six minutes before the grounds crew could corral the animal. The Dragons then tied the game on a two-out RBI single by James Vasquez and won it on a walk-off hit by Chris Okey.

Dragons History November 10, 2016: Brandy Guinaugh, Dragons Vice President of Sponsor Services at that time (now the team’s Assistant General Manager), was selected by Minor League Baseball as the Rawlings Woman Executive of the Year.

April 1, 2017: The Dragons hosted the Cincinnati Reds in the second “Futures Game” at Day Air Ballpark. The Reds closed out spring training by battling a team made up of their top prospects.

The Futures team included Nick Senzel, Jesse Winker, Tyler Stephenson, Aristides Aquino, Taylor Trammell, Shed Long, and many other top prospects.

May 20, 2017: 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 at Day Air Ballpark. 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.

July 30, 2017: Dragons star Jose Siri extended his hitting streak to 36 consecutive games to break the 40-year-old league record of 35 that had stood since 1977. His record-breaking hit came on an 0-2 pitch in his final at-bat of the game at Fort Wayne. Siri eventually extended his hitting streak to 39 straight games.

Sept. 7, 2017: Dragons starting pitcher Scott Moss fired six shutout innings as the Dragons defeated West Michigan 2-1 in the first round of the playoffs. The win evened the series, and the Dragons defeated West Michigan the next night to win the set and advance to the league semi-finals for the first time since 2008 and the fourth time in franchise history.

May 22, 2018: Dayton’s Jeter Downs ended the first game of a doubleheader with a walk-off RBI single, then led off the bottom of the first inning of the second game with a home run. Downs had two consecutive Dayton at-bats on the same day with RBI in both (no other Dayton player batted between his two at-bats). According to Jason Stark of the Athletic, no player in Major League history ever had two consecutive at-bats for the same team on the same day and recorded RBI in both at-bats. Minor League historical stats are not as widely available.

July 26, 2018: Dragons pitcher Hunter Greene threw a fastball that registered 102 mph, the fastest pitch ever recorded at Day Air Ballpark. Greene broke the previous record of 101 mph, held by Aroldis Chapman among others.

November 29, 2018: Dragons President & General Manager Robert Murphy was named by Baseball America as the Minor League Baseball Executive of the Year.

April 23, 2019: Dragons catcher Pablo Manzanero hit three home runs in one game at Lake County.

He became the fourth player in Dragons history to hit three homers in a single game.

July 27, 2019: Dragons outfielder Brian Rey set a club record with eight runs batted in as the Dragons won at Fort Wayne, 14-7. Rey hit a grand slam home run in the first inning, a three-run double in the second, and a solo homer in the fourth.

Sept. 18, 2019: Dragons President & General Manager Robert Murphy was named by Ballpark Digest as the Minor League Baseball Executive of the Year.

June 8, 2021: After trailing Great Lakes 7-0, the Dragons battled back to win 8-7, getting a two-run home run by Quincy McAfee to start the comeback in the fourth, and a three-run double by McAfee in the sixth that gave them the lead. Carson Spiers threw six scoreless innings, allowing one hit with nine strikeouts, in one of the finest relief appearances in franchise history. The win matched the largest comeback margin for the Dragons over the last 17 years.

June 9, 2021: After erasing a seven-run deficit to win on the previous night, the Dragons battled back from a 5-0 deficit to defeat Great Lakes 6-5. Dayton scored three runs in the bottom of the ninth for the win, getting a two-run home run from Reniel Ozuna to tie it, and a walk-off hit by Francisco Urbaez to win. It was the first known instance of the Dragons coming back from deficits of at least five runs on back-to-back nights to win.

July 8, 2021: In the longest nine-inning game in Dragons history, at four hours, 12 minutes, the Dragons came from behind to defeat West Michigan 10-8 at Day Air Ballpark. Dayton overcame an 8-7 deficit by scoring three runs in the bottom of the eighth, capped by a tie-breaking RBI single by Mariel Bautista.

Sept. 19, 2021: The Dragons defeated Fort Wayne at Day Air Ballpark 5-3 to complete a sweep of the six-game series to end the season. It was the first six-game series sweep in Dragons history.

2000 Season Recap

70-67 Overall 1st Half: 31-36; 2nd Half 39-31 Midwest 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 Day Air Ballpark 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. His 16 victories tied for the league lead.

Adam Dunn spent the entire season with the Dragons before going on to hit 462 MLB home runs.

2002 Season Recap

73-67 Overall 1st Half: 32-38; 2nd Half 41-29 Midwest 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. Varner, Boutwell, Cotton, Encarnacion, starting pitchers Daylan Childress and Brad Salman, and catcher Bryan Prince all played in the mid-season MWL All-Star Game.

2003 Season Recap

61-78 Overall 1st Half: 35-35; 2nd Half 26-43 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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 AllStar 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.

2004 Season Recap

48-92 Overall 1st Half: 27-43; 2nd Half 21-49 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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.

2005 Season Recap

60-79 Overall 1st Half: 30-40; 2nd Half 30-39 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs 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 to Day Air Ballpark to once again lead the Midwest League and all of Class-A baseball.

2006 Season Recap

67-73 Overall 1st Half: 35-35; 2nd Half 32-38 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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. OF Jay Bruce led the Dragons in home runs, doubles, and RBI, and won the “Star of Stars Award” after hitting a two-run home run at the All-Star Game in June. 582,903 fans filed into Day Air Ballpark.

2007 Season Recap

78-62 Overall 1st Half: 44-26; 2nd Half 34-36 Midwest 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 Day Air Ballpark 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 Day Air Ballpark to once again lead the Midwest League in total attendance and the consecutive sellout streak reached 565 games.

2008 Season Recap

66-72 Overall 1st Half: 28-40; 2nd Half 38-32 Midwest 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. The Dragons established a new club record for average attendance per home game at 8,624. Their full-season total of 586,417 led all minor league teams below the Triple-A level.

2009 Season Recap

59-80 Overall 1st Half: 28-42; 2nd Half 31-38 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

The Dragons 2009 season was highlighted by the historic Reds Futures Game at Day Air Ballpark 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.

2011 Season Recap

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

The Dragons enjoyed a milestone season in 2011. They garned national attention when they broke the alltime 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.

2012 Season Recap

60-78 Overall 1st Half: 30-40; 2nd Half 30-38 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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 Day Air Ballpark, 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.

2013 Season Recap

65-74 Overall 1st Half: 28-41; 2nd Half 37-33 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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 Day Air Ballpark 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 Day Air Ballpark 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.

2014 Season Recap

68-70 Overall 1st Half: 36-32; 2nd Half 32-38 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

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 Day Air Ballpark. 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. Travieso led the league in victories while Romano broke the club record for most games started by a pitcher and led the MWL in innings pitched.

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 Day Air Ballpark. 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 Day Air Ballpark, 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.

2016 Season Recap

47-93 Overall 1st Half: 21-49; 2nd Half 26-44 Did 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.

2018 Season Recap

58-80 Overall; 1st Half: 31-37; 2nd Half 27-43 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

The Dragons had an unusal streaky start to the season that continued into May. They opened the year with three straight losses before winning their next nine games. They immediately followed the winning streak with an eight-game losing streak, then won nine of the next 10. They lost the next eight, then won seven of the next eight to run their record on the year to 25-21. But a rough finish to the first half carried into the second half and the Dragons were never able to move back into contention. Hard-throwing pitching prospect Hunter Greene made his debut in a full-season league in Dayton on April 9 before an enthusiastic crowd and a press box filled with national, regional, and local media. Greene’s first pitch with the Dragons was clocked at 100 mph. The second overall pick of the 2017 draft spent four months with the Dragons and showed tremendous improvement over the course of the season. In his final game, he fired a pitch at 102 mph, the fastest pitch ever measured at Day Air Ballpark.

2019 Season Recap

58-82 Overall; 1st Half: 28-42; 2nd Half 30-40 Did Not Qualify for Playoffs

The Dragons celebrated their 20th season in 2019. On March 30, former Dragons players Austin Kearns, Chris Dickerson, and Todd Coffey returned to Day Air Ballpark, along with former Dragons coaches Ken Griffey Sr. and Tom Browning, for the Dragons “20th Season Celebration Game,” though rain prevented the game from being played. The Dragons enjoyed a 10-game winning streak from June 2-12, tied for second longest in franchise history. On April 23, Pabel Manzanero became the fourth player in Dragons history to hit three home runs in one game. On July 27, Brian Rey broke a club record by driving in eight runs in a game with a grand slam home run, three-run double, and a solo homer. Reds first round draft pick Nick Lodolo joined the Dragons for a pair of starts in late July.

Midwest League Rules and Facts

Midwest League Baseball 101 Restructuring and the Jump to High-A Major League Baseball completed a restructuring of the Minor Leagues prior to the 2021 season, including the contraction of 42 affiliated teams. The league was reclassified to the “High-A” level after being a “Low-A” league since the Dragons inception in 2000. The league was reduced from 16 teams to 12 (Burlington, Clinton, and Kane County were contracted; Bowling Green moved to new league). All series in 2021 and again in 2022 were scheduled for six games, Tuesday through Sunday, with no games on Mondays throughout the season.

Roster Rules and Facts Midwest League rules allow 30 active players per team at any time, an increase from a 25-player limit in previous years. Midwest League teams typically feature 14-16 pitchers on the 30-man roster. A player placed on the injured list must remain inactive for at least seven days and does not count toward the 30-player roster limit. Average age of a Midwest League player in 2021 was 22.8.

The Dayton Dragons utilized 59 players over the course of the entire 2021 season, including 24 position players and 35 pitchers.

Midwest League coaching staffs typically include four individuals: a manager, pitching coach, hitting coach, and bench coach. Teams also feature a trainer, strength coach, and video coordinator. All teams also receive periodic visits from additional traveling coaches who divide their time among all the organization’s affiliates. These additional instructors typically include the organization’s minor league hitting coordinator, pitching coordinator, and coaches of specific areas such as infield defense, outfield defense, and baserunning. The traveling instructors, sometimes called “rovers,” will often wear the uniform of the Major League parent club rather than the Minor League affiliate.

Playing the Game

The Midwest League utilizes the designated hitter for all games. If a designated hitter enters the game defensively, his team’s pitcher enters the batting order in the spot previously occupied by the player replaced by the designated hitter.

The Midwest League’s most unique rule is the “free runner” rule in extra inning games.

Beginning with the 10th inning, each team begins their at-bat with a runner at second base. The rule was imposed to lessen the chances of a game extending to a length beyond a team’s capacity of available pitching on that date, thereby preventing teams from having to use position players as pitchers in extra inning games.

There is no official “pitch limit” for Midwest League starting pitchers, but every team has its own organizational policy that is strictly followed. Most Midwest League starting pitchers are permitted to throw no more than 80-85 pitches in a game. Just like in the Major Leagues, most Midwest League teams utilize a five-man starting pitcher rotation.

Each Midwest League manager also employs organizational policies regarding relief pitchers.

Typically, a reliever who throws at least 20 pitches in a game will not pitch on the next date.

Pitchers who throw at least 30 pitches in a game are likely to be given at least two days of rest.

The Midwest League utilizes a two-man umpiring crew for all games (plate umpire; base umpire).

New League Rules in 2022

The Midwest League has adopted a Pitch Clock to encourage a quicker pace of play. Pitchers are required to deliver each pitch within an established time limit. Defensive positioning rules now require at least two infielders on each side of second base, with at least four infielders positioned on the infield dirt. Additionally, the size of each base has been increased from 15” to 18”.

Longest Games Since 2018

In 2018, Minor League Baseball instituted a “free runner” rule for extra inning games. Starting in the 10th inning (or 8th inning of a scheduled 7-inning game), both teams begin each inning with a runner at second base. Since the creation of this rule, the Dragons have played 29 extra inning games, and 25 have been decided in the first extra inning. Two games have gone more than two extra innings:

Chris Dickerson hit a three-run home run to pull the Dragons close, and two batters later, Joey Votto hit a game-tying homer. Ryan Fry also had a home run in the inning. The Dragons sent 15 batters to the plate in the frame. Their 10 hits and 11 runs in an inning are still club records.

Billy Hamilton stole 103 bases for the Dragons in 2011 to break the all-time single-season record in the Cincinnati Reds organization. In 2012, Hamilton split the season between Bakersfield and Pensacola, stealing 155 bases, the highest total in professional baseball history at any level.

Baseball’s Greatest Comback On 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 in the Community in 2022

Dragons MVP Program

The Dragons MVP School Program includes over 1,100 fourth and fifth grade classrooms across the Miami Valley. The program is in its 17th year, impacting over 31,000 students. The Dragons MVP Program is made possible by the generous support of Ohio’s 529 College Advantage, Energy Optimizers, Raising Cane’s, Sinclair College, WDTN and Dayton’s CW. Teachers select five MVPs based on the criteria put in place by the teacher including performance, effort, citizenship, and improvement. The five MVPs receive four tickets to a Dragons game, access to an exclusive Dragons MVP Zone, an MVP certificate, and a Dragons MVP hat. The Dragons visit selected classrooms over the course of the program.

Hometown Heroes Program

Five times during the 2022 baseball season, the Dragons will partner with the Dayton Development Coalition and Reynolds & Reynolds for a season-long tribute to all service men and women past and present. There will be four special spotlights (April 22, May 17, June 12, July 4) that will each highlight a different aspect or organization involved in the military. The season-long celebration will wrap up with American Celebration Night on August 13.

Community All-Stars

The Dragons partner with Flying Ace Express Car Wash on the Community All-Stars Program, honoring Dayton’s best individuals and organizations that are improving the quality of life in the Miami Valley.
