The 2024–25 Dominican Professional Baseball League season is the 57th consecutive season of winter league baseball in the Dominican Republic, and 70th overall season. The regular season started on 16 October 2024, and ended 29 December 2024.[3]

Tigres del Licey are the defending champions, having won their 24th championship during the 2023–24 season.

Competition format

Each team plays a 50-game regular season schedule. The top four teams in the standings then play an 18-game round-robin playoff format to determine the top two teams that will play the Final Series. The Final Series is set to be a best-of-nine series to determined the season championship to qualify for the 2025 Caribbean Series.

Season review

As a result of postponements due to rain towards the final days of the season, LIDOM changed the Final Series format from a best-of-nine to a best-of-seven series. The regular season was also extended until the 29 December 2024, to make up games that were postponed.[1] Two games – Gigantes del Cibao v Toros del Este (29 December), Tigres del Licey v Leones del Escogido (30 December) – were cancelled due to these games not affecting standings at the end of the regular season which meant those four teams only played 49 games, respectively.
