At Brooklyn Ballgame, It's “Seinfeld” Night

Players for the Cyclones, the Mets minor-league affiliate the plays in Coney Island, warmed up wearing "puffy" shirts

Baseball is known for peanuts and Cracker Jack, but at this ballgame it might be the pretzels that are making fans thirsty.

The Brooklyn Cyclones dedicated Saturday's game to all things "Seinfeld."

Players for the Cyclones, the Mets minor-league affiliate the plays in Coney Island, warmed up wearing "puffy" shirts. Postal workers threw out the first pitch. And anyone named George Costanza or working in latex sales was supposed to get in free.

It was all to mark the 25th anniversary of the debut of "Seinfeld."

A "Soup Nazi" ladeled out soup to fans; there was an Elaine Benes "dance off"; and the team rechristened its stadium Vandelay Industries Park for the night.

They're even giving away a bobblehead doll of Mets legend and "Seinfeld" guest star Keith Hernandez.
