| Bears Out of Time, Out of Playoffs Wednesday, August 17th, 2005 The Eau Claire Bears have run out of games to perform any sort of late-season miracle. As of today, they were mathematically out of playoff contention.
The Bears have missed the playoffs 35 times in their 43 years as a ABBA Double A franchise. This playoff miss is the club's 4th in a row, with their last postseason appearance coming in 2000. In the last 10 seasons, the Bears have missed the playoffs 8 times. Eau Claire last won the World Series in 1982. | | |
