In spite of a lot of rain surrounding the Satellite field in the Saturday/Sunday overnight hours, the field survived to host the 1st annual Cubs/Marlins reunion game.

A small, rag-tag group of Bears traveled to Johnstown to face the Yankees and squeaked out an 8-5 win. Bears starter Curt Tucker went the distance and carried a shutout into the last inning but started to tire in the seventh. Determined to finish it himself, he kept his cool and completed the game for th...
