New York's Bravest will take over KeySpan Park in Coney Island on Friday, Aug. 4 for the sixth annual FDNY Night. The Brooklyn Cyclones are set to take on the Tri-City Valley Cats at 7 p.m. But before the game, a bunch of Fire Department-related activities will take place. At 5:30 p.m. the FDNY bagpiper will play at the Brooklyn Wall of Remembrance. There will be a Fire Safety House and a fireboat water display. During the national anthem - which will be sung by Firefighter Regina Wilson - children of FDNY members will stand next to the Cyclone players. And Chief of Department Sal Cassano will throw out the first pitch. There will be a post-game fireworks display and post-game party at Peggy O'Neill's restaurant, which is located in front of the stadium. Tickets are $15 for grandstand seats and $10 for bleacher seats. Some proceeds will be donated to the Uniformed Firefighters Association Scholarship Fund. For information, call (718) 999-0740.
