West Virginia Black Bears 2018 Stats

Monongalia County Ballpark - Granville, West Virginia

The West Virginia Black Bears completed their fourth season in Granville on September 3, with a 4-1 loss to the Mahoning Valley Scrappers. They had their worst record (32-44) since relocating to West Virginia from Jamestown, New York in 2015. Developing talent is more important than winning championships at this level, but it is more fun when your team wins.

During this off season, there will be regular posts at Black Bears Tracker regarding the progress of prospects who played for the Black Bears during the last four seasons. I'll include updates about former players no longer in the Pirates' system.

The 2019 New York-Penn League opening day is on Friday, June 14. I'll post information here when the Black Bears schedule is announced. In the meantime, here are the Black Bears' final stats for 2018.

See you at the ballpark.
