WHAT: Want to rock around the clock? Better yet, grab that clock and turn it all the way back as the Brooklyn Cyclones celebrate the year 1957 at KeySpan Park in Coney Island this Sunday, June 24th. Prior to their 5 PM game, the Cyclones will help recreate the final pitch ever thrown at Ebbets Field when former Brooklyn Dodgers Danny McDevitt and Joe Pignatano take the field for the ceremonial first pitch (as well as sign autographs during the game). In addition, you can expect:

-- RSVP, a 4-piece band, will perform hits from the 1950's while hot dogs will be offered at a "turn back the clock" discount of 25 cents from the time the gates open until the start of the game itself.

-- Contests will be held in the spirit of 1957, including trivia and hula-hoop racing, as well as a pre-game Elvis/Marilyn Monroe Look-a-Like contest.

WHEN: Sunday, June 24th at 5 PM (gates open at 3:30pm)

WHERE: KeySpan Park, Coney Island 1904 Surf Avenue @ 17th Street
