Time for Cyclones to make their move
With 20 Games Left, Brooklyn in Position to End Playoff Drought
The Brooklyn Cyclones spent most of their first dozen seasons on Coney Island seriously competing for New York-Penn League titles, one of which they grabbed during their magical inaugural campaign on Coney Island back in 2001.
However, over the previous three years, the perennial McNamara Division contenders have fallen short of the postseason, leaving Brooklyn baseball fanatics hungry for a taste of playoff baseball.
Over the next 20 games, including Wednesday night’s critical series opener in Staten Island in their first game back from the All-Star break, the Cyclones (30-26) must resume their recent hot streak in order to make sure they play past their Sept. 5 regular-season finale against the arch rival Yankees.
