The Allentown Brooks were a minor league baseball team that operated from 1935–1936. The nickname was derived from their parent team, the Brooklyn Dodgers. They played in the New York–Pennsylvania League and were based in Allentown, Pennsylvania. The ballclub was previously known as the Reading Brooks before moving to Allentown midway through the 1935 season, largely as a measure to reduce operating costs. In 1941 the Brooklyn Dodgers affiliate Reading Brooks played in the Inter-State League
