10.6. Batter up!

Spring - for baseball fans, time for spring training and opening day! Although we think of baseball as an American sport, there are players from all over the world. Players from the following countries have been represented on the major league rosters in recent years: Aruba, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Cuba, Curaçao, Dominican Republic, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Panama, South Africa, South Korea, Taiwan, Venezuela.

In recognition of the international aspects of American baseball, read a book set at least 50% in one of the countries listed above.

REQUIRED: if the setting is not obvious from the GR description or metadata, please explain your choice.

It works if the book is set at least 50% in the Netherlands.

it sounds as if it's set in Italy. If so, it works.
