Defending CABA champ Guadalajara won a fourth straight South Division title in 1922, taking the crown comfortably at 101-61. The Hellhounds had the Pitcher of the Year in Carlos Cartagena, with the 27-year old eating what would be a long-standing record of 309.1 innings while posting a solid 2.27 ERA.

The North Division was more competitive with Hermosillo (96), Tijuana (95), and Mexicali (89) all posting solid years. However, Chihuahua prevailed at 102-60 for a third straight division title.

Interestingly, the pitcher with the best WAR in Mexico was the Reliever of the Year for the Warriors. B.J. “The Warden” Medina picked up his second award in his return to Mexico after a few years in MLB, posting 50 saves and a 1.07 ERA with 218 strikeouts over 101.1 innings. He finished second in PotY voting, the closest a reliever had gotten to the award. Outfielder Alba Jimenez, who signed with Tijuana in the offseason from Santo Domingo, won his second career MVP, easily leading the Mexican League with 47 home runs.

For the third straight year, the MLCS was between Guadalajara and Chihuahua. For the first time, the Warriors prevailed, winning the series in five games for their first Mexican title.

Although it was their fourth straight 90+ win season, 1922 would be the first playoff berth for the Haiti Herons, winning the Caribbean Island division at 99-63. They held off Havana (93-69), Jamaica (92-70), and defending champ Santiago (91-71), getting a Pitcher of the Year from Makenson Augustin.

In the Continental Division, Honduras edged Guatemala for the top spot with the Horsemen at 89-73 and Ghosts at 87-75. Guatemala shortstop Neno Campos won the league MVP with the batting title and 10.8 WAR.

It was the fourth straight playoff berth for Honduras and for the third time in that stretch, they prevailed in the CLCS despite boasting the less impressive record. Honduras beat Haiti 4-2 to take the Caribbean League title. Yet again, they’d be denied their first CABA title, falling in a seven-game classic to Chihuahua. Second baseman Hamilton Salazar was series MVP with a .386 average in the postseason.

Other Notes: Kenyon Jorgensen of Juarez had CABA’s fifth perfect game, striking out 11 against Puebla on 8/2. Santiago ace Ulices Montero became the first pitcher to 3500 career strikeouts and Santo Domingo’s Alejandro Cordova the first to 200 wins. Jamaica’s Chris Barnett and SD’s Diomar Glas were the first to reach 1000 career RBI.
