And now playing for the Brooklyn Cyclones — hundreds of kids.
The team that brought baseball back to Brooklyn will sponsor 60 youth league teams this summer, donating uniforms, caps and other equipment as part of a program called STRIKE (Striving To Restore and Improve Kids Equipment). Winning teams will wear a Cyclones uniform all season (see inset).
“We hope nearly every youth league in Brooklyn will have a Cyclones team and that every kid in the league will want to be a Cyclone,” said Cyclones GM Steve Cohen.
To apply, call (718) 449-8497, or email info@brooklyncyclones.com with the subject line “uniforms.” The deadline is Feb. 9.
