Last weekend the first two stops of the European Big Leaguer Tour took place in Eindhoven and Haarlem. Major Leaguers Jeremy Guthrie, Adam Jones, Gregory Halman and John Baker joined organizer Rick van den Hurk on these four clinics total. Next weekend Antwerp and Rotterdam will conclude the series. If you haven’t seen the report on Honkbalsite.com yet, you can also check out this video clip, produced by Rob Jelsma, to get an impression. And if you think baseball has no future in Europe, watch it again and look how many kids showed up in Haarlem.
