The 2014 Haarlem Baseball Week was an international baseball competition held at the Pim Mulier Stadium in Haarlem, the Netherlands from July 11–20, 2014.[2] It was the 27th edition of the tournament.

In the final the United States won over Japan, becoming champions for the fifth time as the national team.

Teams

[edit]

Due to difficult economic times, the organisation had to decide not to invite reigning champions Cuba.[3] This was announced after the first four teams (Chinese Taipei, Japan, Netherlands, United States) had already signed their contracts.[4] Other teams had also canceled their participation for various reasons, including the inability to send an up-to-par team. As a result, only four teams competed in this tournament instead of the usual six.[5]
