Brian Daubach

Brian Michael Daubach (born February 11, 1972) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) player and current hitting coach for the Rochester Red Wings.

During his time with the Red Sox, Daubach was involved in a bench-clearing brawl that occurred during a game between Boston and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on August 29, 2000.

In all, eight members of the Devil Rays team were ejected from the game, which Boston won, with Red Sox pitcher Pedro Martínez nearly throwing a no-hitter.

Daubach's best seasons were with the Red Sox; he averaged 21 homers and 75 RBI per year, and gained a reputation as a "Dirt Dog" for his style of play.

Although the Pride went on to a losing season, Brian Daubach was named the manager of their successor team, the American Defenders of New Hampshire in November 2008.
