PITTSFIELD, Mass. -- The Striking Out Cancer in the Berkshires fund-raiser had another banner year raising money for the Jimmy Fund.

 

The event, which centers on inter-generational pickup baseball and softball games at Clapp Park, had brought in $15,650, as of Tuesday, and dontations were continuing to come in, according to organizer Joe DiCicco.

 

DiCicco has held the event since 2021, and each year it has set a new bar for money raised through entry fees paid by players in the Saturday games, a raffle and free-will donations.
