Adam Gino Bernero (born November 28, 1976) is a retired Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher. Bernero has pitched for the Detroit Tigers, Colorado Rockies, Atlanta Braves, Philadelphia Phillies and Kansas City Royals.\n', '

Bernero signed with the Detroit Tigers in 1999 immediately after his final collegiate game with Armstrong Atlantic State University. Tigers scout Jeff Wetherby followed Bernero to a restaurant to sign him. Because he forgot to bring a contract, and because the Atlanta Braves were also interested in Bernero, Wetherby wrote out a contract for Bernero on a napkin which Bernero signed. Bernero was a member of the Tigers until 2003 before being traded in mid-season to the Colorado Rockies, at which point the Tigers had won a single game and lost 12, and Bernero with an ERA of 6.08.\n', '

Bernero signed with the Boston Red Sox for the 2007 season but missed the entire season after undergoing Tommy John surgery on March 1, 2007. In January 2008, he signed a minor league contract with the Pittsburgh Pirates. He became a free agent after the season.\n', '
