Philadelphia Phillie outfielder Delmon Young has wiped his criminal record clean of a year-old, drunken Midtown beatdown in which he shouted, “F–king Jews!” while pummeling a random male tourist.

The right fielder came to Manhattan Criminal Court yesterday to dispose of the misdemeanor aggravated-harassment charge.

His lawyer, Daniel Ollen, told the judge that the slugger had completed 10 days of community service and a one-day program at the New York Museum of Tolerance.

Young was then allowed to withdraw his November plea to the misdemeanor-harassment charge, and it was dismissed. He will now be left with only a single, lesser harassment charge — a violation, not a crime — on his record.

The victim, a businessman from Schaumburg, Ill., was among a group of four tourists in town for a bachelor party and had been conversing with a panhandler — who was wearing a yarmulke and a Star of David — outside the Hilton Hotel on Sixth Avenue, officials said.

Young, then a Detroit Tiger in town to play the Yankees, was accused of throwing the victim into a wall and tackling him while shouting, “F—ing Jews!” before the scuffle was broken up.

“We’re all glad it’s over,” Ollen told reporters.
