New Field of Dreams on Coney Island
Cyclones announce turf change and renovations at MCU Park for 2013 season
Hurricane Sandy hit Coney Island more than six weeks after the Brooklyn Cyclones’ 2012 season ended with a 2-0 loss at Hudson Valley in the third and decisive game of their first-round playoff series.
But the effects of the deady and destructive super storm are still being felt by area residents, including the Baby Bums as they prepare to open their 13th season on Surf Avenue.
A little more than five weeks from now, the Cyclones will host the rival Staten Island Yankees at MCU Park before what should be another sell-out crowd at one of Minor League Baseball’s most attractive venues.
