Before I moved to Brooklyn, I knew of the Cyclones. I had heard all the stories of how after 40-plus years, baseball was back in Brooklyn. When I started working for the Cyclones, I also found out about all of the fun nights and giveaways we offer. And after Will Gahagan left, I was put in charge of a few different nights, one of which is Jewish Heritage Night.If you look at our Promotional Schedule, you will see that we have Heritage Nights for almost every ethnic background. Irish Night is run by John Haley, Caribbean Night is run by Rishi Ragbir, Asian Heritage Night is run by Joyce Huang, and now Jewish Heritage Night is run by...Patrick. Murphy. Toy.
It's like that old Sesame Street song...“One of these things is not like the other.”
While I may not be one of the Chosen People, I still feel like we have put together a great night. For the first 2,500 fans through the gate, we will be giving away a replica jersey. On top of the free jersey, the band Eden will be performing a pre-game concert, we will be holding an on-field Hora, and (the coolest thing of all) the Cyclones’ players will be wearing special-edition uniforms with Hebrew lettering and numbers.
Some of those jerseys will even be raffled off throughout the game, with proceeds being donated to Otsar Family Services.
You can get your individual tickets now by calling (718) 507-TIXX or by clicking here. I hope to see everyone there. Come say hello. I will be the Gentile schvitzing up a storm, hoping the night goes well.

im excited about jersey nite
the problem w/ the jersey is that does not look like a cyclones jersey. i am not a fan of having advertising on jerseys. im not insulting Maimonides hospital but i dont want advertising on the jersey.
they didnt say how much hebrew jerseys are
dude... free jerseys are going to have advertising on them. that's how they are free.
the real problem with the jersey is that it looks suspiciously like a t-shirt. ;) heh
