It was an unseasonably chilly but otherwise perfect night to go to the Brooklyn Cyclones game tonight. I’ve lived in Brooklyn long enough now to remember when this team began in 2001. I like the way the team observes the Brooklyn baseball connection with its references to the Dodgers. We couldn’t help but note the new construction taking place in the neighborhood. Coney Island will always be Coney Island but neighborhoods, especially New York neighborhoods, do evolve. It was so good to be back at this little gem of a minor league ballpark after being away for several years. Here’s to a good summer.
