The teams raised $2,000 to donate to three local charities.

The 30th Annual Charity Wiffleball Tournamentย ย was held on Saturday, June 21 at Manor Park.ย This yearย the event earnedย $2,000 and will be donatedย to Valerie Fund, Muscular Dystrophy and Parsippany Food Pantry. There wereย some phenomenal games, with upsets,ย incredible defensive plays and newย young teams getting much better, challenging for bracket titles.

Congratulations to Greg Cleary, Jeff Cleary and Vinnie Marchese fromย Two ‘N Out for capturing theirย 4th Wifflemania Title as they winย back to back championships in front of a record crowd ofย 83 fans.

After losing their first game of the day,ย they went on to win EIGHT straight games taking home all the hardware….with the exception of the “2nd Place” plaque. That went to Ballbusters as Two N’ Out defeated them 9-2 in the finals.

Two N’ Out pitcher, Greg Cleary was named MVP as he tossed five shutouts and was his teams most consistent hitter all day. Cleary becomes only the 5th wiffler in 30 years to win multiple MVP awards with his 2nd.

Vinnie “Veal”ย Marchese captured theย HR Title for the 2nd consecutive year,ย smashingย 6 bombs.

Final Four results:

AL: Ballbusters 3 – Kahunas 0

NL: Two ‘N Out 5 – New Era 0

This year’sย ย tournament wasย another huge success with the best turnout they’ve had in fiveย years. This years donations totaledย $2,000 and will go to Valerie Fund, Muscular Dystrophy and Parsippany Food Pantry.
