Major League Wiffleball

He’s thrown a little over 12 innings so far, and Stephen Strasburg’s stats look more like wiffleball numbers than baseball numbers. 2 starts, 2 wins. He’s recorded 37 outs, 22 by strikeout. He’s given up 6 hits and 2 of those were home runs. His strikeout-to-walk ratio is 22-to-5. He allows less than one baserunner an inning.

If you caught any World Cup soccer action so far, you’ve heard what sounds like a swarm of angry bees in the background. Well, it’s not bees buzzing, or technical difficulties with ABC’s or ESPN’s broadcast. It’s from a horn called a vuvuzela. And you can even buy your own vuvuzela online!

Buy one and liven up the atmosphere at your next wiffleball game!

One way to improve your chances of a perfect game is to strike out everyone, like Steve Nebraska did. Major League Wiffleball’s Quentin Jensen almost did that, and he didn’t even need an umpire.

While we’re still talking about Quentin Jensen’s perfect game 10 years later, and there must be a few people out there that occasionally refer to Steve Nebraska’s (fictional) perfect game, I have a feeling we’ll be talking about Armando Galarraga’s (almost) perfect game in another 10 years too.

Remember hitting a Wiffle Ball in your back yard as a kid and feeling like Babe Ruth or Ted Williams? Or maybe you prefer Joe Mauer or Derek Jeter? Either way, it’s time to find that swing again!

This summer, you can help find a cure for arthritis by playing wiffleball. On June 26th, the Arthritis Foundation will host the 2010 Strike Out Arthritis Wiffle Ball Tournament in the Boston, Massachusetts area, and raise funds to help find a cure for our nation’s #1 cause of disability which affects 300,000 children in the U.S.
