Friendly match coming up between KOTN and Japan

A Japanese contact informed me about an upcoming friendly between Japan and team Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Goal of this game is the promotion of the game of baseball with the 2020 Olympic Games in mind.

My contact at the KNBSB confirmed that a friendly match will be played but that the NPB and the KNBSB are still negotiating about the terms and other important issues.

The game is scheduled in November so it is safe to say that the game will be played in one of Japan’s baseball domes, since the weather in the Netherlands is not a good fit to play baseball then.

More information will follow.
