Wohooooo! Czech deserves it period. They really do. European baseball has chance at becoming even somewhat relevant on a continental level. The Czech Republic is the epitome of countries that have a youth baseball presence. The rest of this year I’m hoping to see some of our young players improve.
Yes, Draci Brno have a few good stars (Michal Sobotka, Jan Varusek), so I can see them being fun to root for. That Radim Chroust deal though… It was awesome watching them against the Kotlarka Prague. In general Czech baseball became rather specular one. Good teams with young players that should keep them competitive for a while.
