4 Robert Frazier 5 years - #6 Frazier started the Dragons in 1996 but prior to that, he ran the 93 Cubs, 94 Indians, and 95 Hooters before settling on the Dragons name that would stick for decades. Frazier managed the Dragons to record over his 5 seasons but more importantly, he set the tone for how the team would be managed. He was very well organized with little sheets of notes everywhere, with names, phone numbers, etc., however, he rarely missed a managers meeting and became one of the most reliable and respected managers in the MABL. He stressed being a good teammate and assembled the original group of Dragons in the mid to late 90 s, many of which are still friends to this day thanks to him. When he left for Japan in 2000, he turned to the team over to Brett Washburn, saying, The Dragons will never last if you don t take over. Robert followed the Dragons from Japan for over a decade with biweekly phone calls to check in. Today, he still checks in on the team from Minneapolis, where he is employed at Amazon. Robert was able to be in attendance for the 2017 Championship series vs the Cherokees and witnessed the first championship with a great deal of pride for what he had started 22+ years previous. Mitch Jolley 7 years - #3 Jolley played 7 seasons with the Dragons from before retiring. Mitch was the all time catcher, all around good guy, and never say die attitude. A Marine at heart, he gave everything he had oftentimes catching both ends of the doubleheader in 100 degree weather. Mitch was instrumental in growing the Dragons as well as he was the rock behind Robert for many years. Today, Mitch works in construction and lives in Cumming with his wife Amy. Billy Whitfield 14 years - #14 Todd Edwards 14 years - #9 Edwards played 14 seasons with the Dragons but would have been 19 had he not moved away from Edwards was a stalwart at 3 rd for the Dragons for years and usually hit 3 rd. He is the Dragons career leader in RBI, 2 nd in Runs scored, and 3 rd in Home Runs. He career batting average of.354 places him just outside the top 10 but his high was.453 in He is the career leader in doubles with 69. Todd, aka Hollywood, was known for having the latest trends on the baseball field and was a leader in the dugout and off the field. Todd s last season was 2014 but he keeps in close touch with the Dragons and their successes. Off the field today, Todd is active in the Atlanta tennis community and lives in the Milton area with his wife Daphne and their sons Aaron and Dayne. Dayne is a standout football player in the Milton High School program which Todd is actively involved in volunteering his time and energies. Whitfield played for 14 seasons before retiring after the 2012 season. Billy infamously came up with the kangaroo court fine system and made sure it was documented in the book weekly so we could recap at the end of the year at the team party. That was always good for a lot of entertainment. On the field, Billy was a workhorse on the mound for many years of undocumented success. Billy should be far and away the career leader in wins, innings pitched, and strikeouts however pitching stats got the short end of the stick in the early years. Billy is the career leader in Home Runs with 55 and 3 rd all time in RBI with 224. Billy works in the construction business and lives in Kennesaw with his wife Kelly and their 3 kids.

5 Mike Hanelin (Doc) 12 years - #32 Doc played 12 seasons and was a key cog in the lineup, on the mound, and in the field, manning CF for years. Doc s career on base percentage was.468 with ranks 7 th all time. He is in the top 10 in many career categories including 1 st in triples, 3 rd in runs scored, 4 th in doubles and hits, 6 th in RBI, and his.360 career batting average is 10 th. Doc would be in the top 5 in career pitching if those stats had been kept better in the early years as he won some big playoff games over his time wearing #32. Doc was known for his intensity and a strikeout was sure to produce a helmet bounding against a wall near you in the dugout. He raised the level of everyone s game around though and he is probably the career leader in fines as well. Today, Doc is still a radiologist in the Phoenix, AZ area and has taken up acting over the last several years and you ve probably seen in some commercials and short films. David Zanaty 10 years - #22 Z played 10 seasons with the Dragons and once said prior to retiring, I m not sure what to do, I m a baseball player. He was a constant in the lineup with his best year hitting.400 in 2002 and racking up double digit RBI s for 6 consecutive seasons. He s 7 th in Dragons history in career hits and RBI and 8 th in runs. He ranks 2 nd in career SAC fly s and was always a quick witted personality, making everyone laugh on a regular basis. He once won in poker on a team trip and carried a little sheet of paper with an I owe you on it for several years. He never had a problem finding what to do after baseball. He s been very successful in Real Estate Investment, Development, and Operations over the last couple decades. David and his wife Katie still live in Atlanta. Rusty Umphenour 6 years - #5 Rusty will go down as the funniest Dragon of all time and one of the best teammates anyone could ever have. Always smiling, he made coming to the ballpark as fun as it could be. On the field, he s one of the best hitters in Dragons history compiling a career.416 batting average with ranks #4 and.568 on base percentage which is #1 alltime. He hit.400 or better in 4 of his 6 seasons. Fun fact about Rusty, he played on the 1983 Little League World Series team out of Murphey Candler Park. He lives in Atlanta and has 2 kids. Wayne Hauenstein 6 years - #15 Wayner never met a call he agreed with or an umpire he liked. He was famously ejected in the 2002 playoffs vs the White Sox declaring, I couldn t hit that with a step ladder on a called strike 3. Wayne was a heck of a hitter though coming in 7 th all-time with a. 379 career average. He places 10 th in hits and 9 th in RBI over his 6 years. He played a solid SS for many years and was a true competitor. Wayne was once fined for bringing the book, What to Expect When Your Expecting into the dugout to give to Ken. In his personal life, Wayne is an avid follower of Georgia Tech football, basketball, and Atlanta Braves baseball. He has his own consulting company, called Learning Curve Consulting that he started in He lives in Roswell with his wife and 3 kids and coaches his son s travel team.

6 Ken Taylor 5 years - #39 Ken played 5 seasons with the Dragons before moving up to the 28+ Dragons for several years later. He was brought on in 1999 by Wayne and found out he made the team when Edwards handed him a Dragons t shirt after the 1 st practice. Ken quickly fit in and became one of the proudest Dragon players in a short time and even wrote a book called Dragonball that may be published in The book chronicles his work life and Dragons baseball in regards to how baseball saved him and allowed him to be himself. It s a fascinating look into a young career and Dragons baseball in the early days. On the field, Ken would famously throw his bat upon being hit by a pitch and is 8 th all time in just 5 years for hit by pitches. Many Dragons players would privately root for him to be hit so we could see the show. He is also 8 th all time in stolen bases and was a great bunter. In his first season, he used to bunt a lot until one day, Washburn told him to swing the damn bat and don t be a p****y. Ken hit his first career home run the next game and would finish with 3 on the year. Ken never hit below.300 and finished with a.346 career average. He now runs his own consulting firm called 39 Consulting and has published a book called Persuaded that you should check out. Ken lives with his wife Kellie in Alpharetta and has 2 kids. Paul Brooks 6 years - #1 Paul came to the Dragons in 1999 from the league commissioner and fit in immediately. Fresh out of school from the U. of Virginia, he moved to Atlanta to go to grad school at Georgia Tech. His young legs were a welcome addition and he always had a solid bat and pitched in some big games. In the 1999 playoffs he pitched one of the best games in Dragons history and led just 1-0 going to the 9 th. The Dragons had no pitching left and with 2 outs the season ended on a walk off by the opponent in the bottom of the 9 th but Paul pitched his heart out. He finished with a.311 career average and very respectable.423 on base percentage. Today, Paul is back in Virginia where he is a professor at Viriginia Commonwealth in Richmond and lives with his wife Courtney and have one son.
