The 2023 Caribbean Baseball Cup was the fourth edition of the Caribbean Baseball Cup, an international baseball tournament organized the Caribbean Baseball Confederation (COCABE), a division of WBSC Americas. The championship was held from 2 to 8 October 2023 in Puerto Rico and was contested in a round-robin format between four national teams: hosts Puerto Rico, Cuba, Curaçao and the United States Virgin Islands. [1]

Contents

The schedule initially included six games per team; however, due to heavy rains, only four games per team were played. All games were played over seven innings instead of the usual nine. [2]

Cuba won the championship undefeated with a 4–0 record. Curaçao and Puerto Rico both finished with a 2–2 record, but since Curaçao defeated Puerto Rico 3–0, they secured the silver medal, while Puerto Rico settled for bronze. The U.S. Virgin Islands lost all their games, finishing fourth with a 0–4 record. [3] [4] [5]
