This Tuesday the third assembly in the third Assembly of the State Baseball League took place, highlighting the number of teams that will qualify for the playoffs for the 2022 season of the First Force State Championship as well as the arrival of professional players.
Unlike last year, in which six teams advanced to the next stage of the state fair, this year eight teams will qualify, so the figure of the “best loser” disappears.
In addition, as a novelty to this competition system, at the end of the first round of the playoff there will be a draft of players from the six teams already out of competition.
This is that each semi-finalist team will be able to select two players to be reinforced, which may be classified, native, minors, foreigners, but not professionals.
The baseball of the Chihuahua State League has taken, for this 2022 season, a historic step towards a better show on the field of play, after the participation of a professional baseball player, pitcher or batter and of nationality was approved. Mexican.
This was determined in a majority vote by the jurisdictionals, who also agreed to define at a future meeting the conditions under which this type of player will take part for the 2022 season.
Regarding the so-called ranked player, it remains as the previous season. Each team may have four on its roster, but per game only two may be on the field of play, one pitcher and the other batter.
