A new professional league in China
CPB was announced in September 2025 and played its first games on 1 January 2026. It is organised by the Shanghai-based company CoolBang Sports and is the first professional baseball league in mainland China in years. Rosters mix Chinese players with imports from Cuba, Latin America, the United States, Japan and Taiwan.
How the CPB season works
The 2026 season had a Spring League in January and a Summer League from August, which decides the champion. In the Summer League each club played a regular season from August 15 to September 20; the top four teams went to the semifinals, followed by a best-of-three Championship Series.
CPB is not the CPBL
CPB is based in mainland China. The similarly named CPBL (Chinese Professional Baseball League) is the long-established professional league of Taiwan, which has its own hub on World Baseball News.
