The Los Angeles Dodgers have recruited Israeli ballplayer Alon Leichman to coach for its organization. Alon Leichman, 27, was recently coaching pitchers for the Israeli national team during World Baseball Classic qualifying round. His father David, an immigrant from the United States, was one of the founders of Gezer baseball, one of the bedrocks of Israeli baseball in its early days, so it was natural that Alon should get involved. Despite being based overseas, Leichman maintains his connection to Israel, coaching whenever he’s home on a visit and playing on the men’s senior national team.
