These colorful early seasons were sprinkled with some of the great names of the American pastime: Ed Barrow, Paul Kritchell, Al Mamaux, Red Rolfe, Babe Ruth, Shag Shaughnessey, Bob Shawkey, and George Weiss.The Bears' finest hour, however, came in 1937 with a team that many experts consider the greatest in the history of the minor leagues.
