ON SEPTEMBER 22, 2002, THE NEWARK BEARS BECAME ATLANTIC LEAGUE CHAMPIONS AFTER DEFEATING THE BRIDGEPORT BLUEFISH IN GAME 3 OF A SERIES SWEEP BY THE SCORE OF 10-3. BY DOING SO, THE BEARS RETURNED CHAMPIONSHIP BASEBALL TO THE CITY OF NEWARK, NJ AFTER MORE THAN A 50 YEAR DROUGHT. WAY TO GO, BEARS! THANKS FOR THE HUSTLE! CONGRATULATIONS! |
THANKS TO GENERAL MANAGER TONY ZEFIRETTO, THE FAN CLUB SHARED IN THE GLORY. |
OUR TRUEST BEAR, JOE MATHIS AND THE ATLANTIC LEAGUE'S FIRST TRIPLE CROWN WINNER, LEAGUE MVP AND SERIES MVP JIMMY HURST - NO ONE DESERVED THE WIN MORE THAN THESE 2 GUYS. |
WAY TO GO, BEARS! CONGRATULATIONS! |
