Caribbean Series

Season Description
The 2026 Caribbean Series was the 68th edition of the Caribbean Series club baseball tournament, scheduled from 1 to 7 February 2026, at the Estadio Panamericano de Béisbol in Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico. The tournament features the winners of the respective winter league baseball leagues of the Caribbean Professional Baseball Confederation (CPBC) four full members; Dominican Republic (LIDOM), Mexico (LMP), Puerto Rico (LBPRC), and Venezuela (LVBP), plus special guest Panama (LPBP). The tournament was originally scheduled to be held in Venezuela; however, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and Mexico requested after meeting on 15 December 2025, that the CBPC move the tournament from Venezuela due to the ongoing political turmoil in the country. LVBP protested the decision and eventually decided to pull out of the event all together. As a result, their league winner will participate in the 2026 Serie de las Américas to be played in Venezuela at the same time. As host and due to Venezuela's departure, Mexico received two spots - the winners and runners-up of the 2025–26 Mexican Pacific League season. Leones del Escogido represented the Dominican Republic as defending champions and were eliminated by the Tomateros de Culiacán in the semi-finals. In an All-Mexican final, The Charros de Jalisco won their first Caribbean Series title by defeating the Tomateros de Culiacán by a final score of 12-11 in extra innings.
