Defending CABA champ Leon won the Mexican League South Division for the third time in four years, as the Lions finished 100-62. Monterrey took the North Division at 97-63. Both teams won their division by 13 games.

Leon SS Emmanuel Zavala won his second MVP award with a league-best 9.7 WAR. He added his eight Silver Slugger, hitting 33 home runs and 997 RBI with a .307 average. Puebla’s Felix Hernandez was the Pitcher of the Year as the 29-year old Honduran righty led the Mexican League in ERA for the first time at 1.73. He also led in WHIP at 0.74 and had a 7.5 WAR season.

Puerto Rico picked up a second straight Caribbean Island Division title with CABA’s best record in 1942 at 106-56, 14 games ahead of Haiti. Honduras grabbed their fifth division title in six years, going 91-71 but still winning the division by 10 games.

Pelicans RF Pasqualino Yanez at age 30 earned his first MVP award, leading the Caribbean in home runs (52) and WAR (9.2). He also was the leader in the triple slash (.321/.379/.642), OPS (1.020), and wRC+ (186). Honduras had the Pitcher of the Year from veteran Steadman Arzu in his 10^th year with the club. The Belizean led the Caribbean in ERA (1.97) and WHIP (0.86).

In the MLCS, Leon rolled in five games against Monterrey, giving the Lions Mexican League dynasty status with their third title in four seasons. Honduras swept Puerto Rico in a CLCS rematch, also giving the Horsemen their third title in four years. In the CABA Championship, it was decided 4-3 for the sixth straight season. In a 1939 rematch, Honduras prevailed over Leon to give the Horsemen their second overall CABA title in three seasons.

Other notes: Mexico City legend Kiko Velazquez became the first CABA hitter to 1500 runs scored and the second to 1500 RBI. He also secured his record 14^th and final Silver Slugger award. It would be the final CABA season for the 35-year old RF, who would spend his final three seasons in America.

Guatemala pitcher Michelangelo Nava threw a perfect game with six strikeouts against Havana on August 4. Monterrey shortstop Carlos Almonte in his final CABA season won his 11^th Gold Glove. Salvador’s Emmanuel Reyes and Nicaragua’s Egor Guzman became the fourth and fifth members of the CABA 500 home run club. Guzman and Tijuana’s Ric Rodriguez both crossed the 2000 hit threshold.
