This was the year that everything came together. With Zeke coming on strong in the spring, together with Alberto Tascher behind the plate, and the addition of Julio Miravel and Leandro Leon, the Dawgs in the spring played better, played more confidently, and it was a good season. We ended at 7 and 9, which should have been 9 and 7, but those two "rubber" games that we lost were close ones, and it was because we weren't used to winning. I'll explain later.
It was, quite simply, a combination of strong pitching, good fielding, and better bats. Duh. NOW, what we need is a good, aggressive coach who can teach us to become Killer Attack Dawgs.
A sign of trouble was that Shmuel didn't pitch at all, relying instead on Zeke's abilities. That would come back to haunt the Dawgs next year.
Roster:
Dani Machlis
Jeff Weiner
Leandro Leon
Yechezkel Ganz
Lowell Blackman
Yigal Rozval
Shmuel Goldstein
Alberto Tascher
Michael Moronov
Natan Mandel

Fall:
Dudu Zozin
Yan Kaminer
Ken Goldstein
Amnon Eisner
Aron Kurz
But late in the spring, Zeke informed us that he is splitting off, and forming his own team, to be called the "Brewers" (Cerveceros), consisting of all Spanish-speakers, mainly from Cuba.
The split-off started in the fall, but we survived, with the return of hot-armed Aron Kurz, and a couple of his buddies from the RSL: Dudu Zozin and Yan Kaminer.
