This is even more irrelevant than the World Baseball Classic.

[Great Rumbler]

Baseball World Cup? Is that like the Little League World Series?

He's always Dutch when there's an international sporting event.

Also, what the hell is this?  Some international baseball competition that runs simultaneous with the MLB playoffs?  Zuh?

[Human Snorenado]

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.

People play baseball in Europe? I thought it was strictly an American and Asian thing

The Netherlands includes Aruba and Curacao, which is where they draw most of their team from, IIRC.

Yep, The Caribbean >>> * when it comes to baseball.

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.

The Netherlands includes Aruba and Curacao, which is where they draw most of their team from, IIRC.

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