We’re taking a slight diversion from baseball in America this week and turning our attention to the sport being played closer to home.
The Dutch Hoofdklasse is arguably the strongest baseball league in Europe, and with it being just a short plane/ferry ride away, a trip to the Netherlands is an excellent way for Brits to take in some quality ballgames. If you are interested in making the trip, knowing a bit more about the eight teams that currently make up the Hoofdklasse and how the league is progressing would be a good idea. A new English website for the league has been launched recently, created with the help of the International Baseball Federation, and it allows you to keep up with all of the action.
