The 2009 Brooklyn Cyclones started the season strong, winning nine of their eleven games in July. They won their first seven games in July, but went 12-12 over the course of the rest of the month. August was also a mixed bag for them, with the team going 11-8 through August 23rd. Rain cancelled the regularly scheduled contest between the Cyclones and the Aberdeen IronBirds on August 22nd, so the game was scheduled to be made up the next day as part of a seven-inning doubleheader. With all four teams in the McNamara Division fighting for first place in the division and a possible Wild Card playoff berth, the game would have major playoff implications.
