Vitilla is a form of street baseball that originated in the Dominican Republic and is traditionally played with a plastic bottle cap and broomstick. Red Bull Clasico de Vitilla brings the Dominican street game to the Bronx in a spectator-friendly tournament-style competition for serious players and recreationalists alike. Vitilla is a classic game that has been attributed as a key factor for developing hand eye coordination for some of professional baseball’s great hitters. According to those who play, if you can hit a Vitilla, you can hit anything. Red Bull Clasico de Vitilla invites the members of the Bronx community to compete in a tournament that plays homage to Latin and Dominican heritage. Red Bull Clasico De Vitilla is a bracket style tournament. There are two brackets – one for experienced players and one for amateurs.
