It’s a Five Towns Cyclones double header

Posted

Five Towners flocked twice to MCU Park in Coney Island, home of the Brooklyn Cyclones, to support local causes.

On Sunday, 50 members of Kulanu witnessed the return to the mound of Mets’ star pitcher Noah Syndergaard, who suffered an injury six weeks ago. Syndergaard fanned seven as he fine-tuned his skills to the delight of the crowd during a match against the Staten Island Yankees.

On Jewish Heritage Night, June 26, Community Chest South Shore, supported by The Jewish Star, Nassau Herald, and Dime Bank, sponsored 80 ticketholders from the Marion & Aaron Gural JCC Sustenance Hope Opportunities Place and kosher food pantry.

The Dime Bank’s Cedarhurst branch manager, Chris Reide, threw the ceremonial first pitch to catcher Yeugye Colon.
