The 2024 Caribbean Series was the 66th edition of the Caribbean Series club baseball tournament, played from February 1-9, 2024, at LoanDepot Park in Miami, Florida, United States. This was the first time since the 1991 series that the Caribbean Series was held outside of Latin America, as well as the first Caribbean Series that was held at a Major League Baseball ballpark.[1]
The series brought together the champions of seven professional baseball leagues: the four full members of the Caribbean Professional Baseball Confederation (Dominican Republic, Mexico, Puerto Rico and Venezuela), plus three guests (Curaçao, Nicaragua and Panama).[2]
Tiburones de la Guaira won their first championship, representing Venezuela.
Summary
On February 3, the game between the Tigres del Licey and Criollos de Caguas had an attendance of 35,972 fans; the highest attendance ever for a Caribbean Series game.
On February 7, Ángel Padrón of the Tiburones de La Guaira completed a no-hitter against Gigantes de Rivas. It was the first no-hitter since the 1952 Caribbean Series, the second ever in the tournament's history, and the first thrown by a pitcher of Hispanic origin.
On February 9, the Championship Game between Tigres and Tiburones was played in front of 36,677 fans; breaking the record from February 3rd.
Tournament format
A single round-robin format was used; each team faced each other once. The four teams with the best records advanced to the semifinals (1st vs. 4th and 2nd vs. 3rd). The two losers met in the 3rd place match and the two winners met in the final to decide the tournament champion.[3]
