The Black Bears will open their 2021 season on May 24 in Mongolia Valley Ballpark against the Mahoning Valley Scrappers. The 68-game schedule includes 34 home games played in Morgantown. The regular-season finale is scheduled for Aug. 13, also against the Scrappers.
The Black Bears, who previously operated as a Class A Short Season Affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates, will play in the first season of the MLB Draft League, created this offseason. The roster will be made up of MLB draft-eligible, amateur players from high school and college and use wooden bats.
The six-team league will feature the Black Bears, Scrappers, the Frederick Keys, Trenton Thunder, Williamsport Crosscutters and State College Spikes.
