NIEUWEGEIN (Neth.) - On Saturday, January 22, at the Head Office in Nieuwegein, the Royal Dutch Baseball and Softball Association honored the best players of the 2010 season in baseball and softball.

Bryan Engelhardt (Corendon Kinheim) and Kim Kluijskens (Sparks Haarlem) were named Most Valuable Player in respectively the Dutch big league baseball and softball. Engelhardt also got trophies for hitting the Most Homeruns and stealing the Most Bases.

Bryan Engelhardt batted .373, which was Kinheim's second best, as teammate Dirk van 't Klooster hit .400 to win the trophy for Batting Champion. At Kinheim, Engelhardt led with 37 runs scored, 57 basehits, 11 doubles, six homeruns, 36 RBI's and 16 stolen bases. His hits and RBI's were the most in the league. Also nominated for the MVP-trophy were Sidney de Jong (L&D Amsterdam Pirates) and Raily Legito (DOOR Neptunus).

Kim Kluijskens led Sparks Haarlem with a .422 batting average, 38 hits and 33 RBI's. She also scored 23 runs. Her batting average was second best in the league behind Britt Vonk (Tex Town Tigers), who hit .446. Kim's RBI's were the most in the league. She also led in On Base Percentage. Also nominated for the MVP-trophy were Kate Gentile (Iber Lengua Terrasvogels) and Nadine Marinus (Tex Town Tigers).

Leon Boyd (DOOR Neptunus) and Lindsey Meadows (Tex Town Tigers) are the Best Pitchers of the 2010 season.

Leon Boyd led the big league with an 0.39 ERA and was second best with 83 StrikeOuts and victories (9). Also nominated were David Bergman (Corendon Kinheim) and Rob Cordemans (L&D Amsterdam Pirates).

Lindsey Meadows won her third Best Pitcher Award in the last four years. She led the league with her 0.36 ERA, Innings Pitched (129.1) and StrikeOuts (150) and finished the season with a 13-3 record. Also nominated for Best Pitcher were Dagmar Bloeming (Sparks Haarlem) and Andee Lindgen (Twins).

Tony Moyo was the MVP and Best Pitcher in the Men Softball League, but this awards were not handed out today. As the Men Softball League had no topsport-status during the 2010 season, no Official Scorers were assigned to their games. The awards in the Men Softball League were handed out after completion of the season in September.
