CUBA TOPS FIRST IBAF WORLD RANKINGS

The International Baseball Federation has released its first-ever World Rankings, with Cuba holding down the Number One slot. South Korea was ranked second, followed by the USA, Japan and Taiwan in the Top 5. Rankings are determined by how well national teams perform in regional or world championship events at various age levels.


The IBAF rankings should be taken with a grain of salt. The baseball-rich Dominican Republic was rated 17th, behind Panama, Nicaragua, China and Spain, among others.
