Shane Anderson

One of only two players to participate in The Wiffle®Ball Championship every year since 2005, Shane Anderson has been a model of consistency regardless of the team he has suited up for.

At the time of his induction, no player has played in more Hometown Cup Finals, as Anderson has made eight appearances at Migley (2006, 2008, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019).

As a 14-year old, he helped lead The 4 Amigos to a runner-up finish in 2006, and he returned to Wiffle®Ball's Grandest Stage in 2008 again as a teenager with Multiple Scorgasms. More recently, he has made several trips to the Final Four with the Maple City Magic franchise.

Known most for his pitching, he won ORWBL Cy Young awards in 2010 and 2013. He has been selected an All-Star six times (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2017, 2019). A three-time World Series champ, Anderson sits atop the all-time career list for pitching wins and strikeouts at the time of his induction.
