As MLB games started last night, I decided to once again look up my favorite minor league player and namesake Lipso Nava. It seems that early last week, star infielder Lipso Nava was traded to the Newark Bears. As the press release stated, “last season with the Riversharks, Nava batted .312 with 97 hits in 88 games, establishing a career high with 23 doubles. The veteran of over 1,300 games will be joining his third Atlantic League team after spending parts of five seasons with the Somerset Patriots and the Riversharks.”
This is fantastic news for me as Newark is even closer to NYC than Camden. I am in the midst of contacting da Bears to arrange an interview with Mr. Nava. I hope to attend one if not several games this season. Buena suerte Lipso!
