The also national baseball commissioner explained that the FCB currently manages the contracts of more than 20 players in the country.

In addition, he confirmed that the 62nd National Baseball Series will begin on March 22, one day after the conclusion of the V World Baseball Classic, and that its first phase will end before the start of the Central Caribbean event in San Salvador.
