Mexicali won the Mexican League North Division for the second straight season, taking the top spot at 98-64. Hermosillo was their closest competitor at 91-71. In a tight South Division, Guadalajara narrowly took it at 96-66, better than Merida by one game. Ecatepec was six games back and defending champ Puebla was fourth at 86-76.

Leading the Maroons was a record-setting season from 1B Timmy Ramirez. The 28-year old won his third MVP and set the new single-season record with 65 home runs, beating the prior record of 61 he set two years earlier. Ramirez also had the first 150+ RBI season in CABA history with 154. He also led the league in runs (120), slugging (.710), OPS (1.102), and WAR (10.9). Pitcher of the Year went to Hermosillo’s Timothy Sandoval with the 30-year old American leading the league in wins (21) and WAR (7.6) with a 2.83 ERA and 271 strikeouts.

The Caribbean Island Division came down to the wire with Jamaica taking it at 97-65, only one game ahead of defending CABA champ Havana 96-66. In the Continental Division, Nicaragua was first at 92-70, three better than Honduras. For the Navigators, this is their third-ever playoff berth and first since 1919.

Leading Nicaragua’s effort was 26-year old RF Ricardo De Jesus, who won league MVP. He had a league-best 7.7 WAR, .317 average, and .899 OPS. Guatemala’s Edgar Andunvar won his third straight Pitcher of the Year. The 28-year old lefty nicknamed “Penguin”, led the Caribbean in ERA (2.10), WAR (8.3), and FIP- (52).

In the Mexican League Championship Series, Mexicali bested Guadalajara in six games to give the Maroons their first-ever league title in three MLCS appearances. The Caribbean League Championship Series went seven games for the fourth time in five seasons. Jamaica edged Nicaragua to give the Jazz their fourth league title and first since their early 1930s dynasty. Jamaica added its third CABA title by taking the overall championship over Mexicali in five games.

Other notes: Jeong-Hyeon Pin became the second CABA batter to reach 600 career home runs. Pin would play one last season in CABA in 1951 and finish with 634 home runs, passing Diomar Glas for the all-time lead. He’d surrender the lead by the end of the 1950s to Prometheo Garcia. Pin also crossed 2500 hits in 1950 along with Sandro Villanueba. SS Emmanuel Zavala would win his 16^th and final Silver Slugger, a number that wouldn’t be caught as of 2036.
