Puerto Rico has always brought strong teams into the Caribbean World Series, though they have not won a championship since Criollos de Caguas won back-to-back titles in 2017 and 2018. Indios was one of three teams that finished with a 2-2 record in the opening round, though they lost to Mexico like everyone else did.

The Dominican Republic, coming off a 10-7 loss to Puerto Rico, will face Venezuela in one of two Caribbean Series semifinal matchups on Wednesday.
