1975 European Baseball Championship
The 1975 European Baseball Championship was held in Barcelona, Spain. Italy won the tournament, defeating defending champion The Netherlands in a best-of-five-games championship series. It was the first time the Dutch team did not win a European championship they participated in. Bill Arce, who had previously won the 1971 championship leading the Netherlands, managed Italy, whose pitchers had a 1.35 earned run average during the tournament. West Germany finished third after splitting a four-game bronze-medal series with Spain, and Sweden swept France in three games, with the French losing all five games in the tournament.
