EL Best Manager is Dugas of the Baysox Saturday, September 27th , 2110 When Seth Dugas was hired to lead the Bowie Baysox, fans were expecting improvement over the last manager. Today, flanked by team officials, Dugas accepted the Eastern League Manager of the Year Award, noting the level of passion for the Bowie Baysox. "The biggest challenge was the fans. I don't know how many times I was asked, if I thought the club was good enough. It was as if they expected failure. It was much easier to win over the ballplayers. Slowly but surely the fans began to believe in us." Dugas led Bowie to a first place finish in the Southern Division. The Baysox ended up with a 84-56 record. Dugas is looking forward to the offseason. "We're reviewing our options. You never stand still in baseball. You either get better or worse, 'cause everyone else is out to get your free agents or deal for your prospects. It's going to be a challenge." But the skipper has more than proven he is equal to the task. |
