EX-YANK TO MANAGE WBC TEAM NETHERLANDS

From MLB.COM

While he was playing in the Yankees organization during the early 1990s, Robert Eenhoorn remembers those days when he and many of his fellow Minor Leaguers would get an opportunity to play against George Steinbrenner's big leaguers.
As Eenhoorn remembers it, he and his teammates would emerge victorious in most of those intrasquad contests that were held during Spring Training.
Now, as Eenhoorn prepares to serve as the manager of The Netherlands national team that will compete in the inaugural World Baseball Classic, he finds himself as the leader of another underdog squad. But as history and his vast baseball experiences have taught him, anything can happen on any given day.
"You'd have to look at that as strange if I said we were looking to come into this as favorites," Eenhoorn said. "But anybody who has watched baseball knows that if you have players and pitchers having a good day or a few good days, you can beat somebody. We're definitely not going into this without a desire to be at our best."
