I've never heard of this and I'm wondering if it's because of America's ethnocentricity or because it doesn't matter.

Yes.

Post by: Mr. Gundam on October 05, 2011, 02:46:49 PM: The World Baseball Classic is when the MLB players participate, not this little tournament. I don't think the NPB has their guys in this either since they've got playoffs going on, too.

Yeah, the players aren't from the Netherlands, they're from the Netherlands Antilles, which is still part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
