Sussex Skyhawks, The New Jersey Cardinals Replacement
Beginning with the 2006 baseball season, the vacancy left by the New Jersey Cardinals in Augusta, New Jersey, was replaced by a new expansion team called the Sussex Skyhawks. The Skyhawks played in the Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball, a independent baseball league. The Sussex Skyhawks folded after the 2010 season, leaving Skylands Park vacant for the first time in the stadium's history. It is uncertain if the Skyhawks would return in 2012.

“Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
