Béisbol Doble A ("Double-A Baseball"), governed by the Federación de Béisbol Aficionado de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico Amateur Baseball Federation), is a Puerto Rican amateur baseball spring and summer baseball league, founded in 1940 and based in San Juan. The season normally starts in mid to late February and ends with the Carnaval de Campeones (Carnival of Champions) final in September. They play a weekend schedule (Friday, Saturday and Sunday), and their all-star game is held soon after the regular season and before the playoffs. The Toritos de Cayey are the defending champions.
For the upcoming 2023 season, the League will have two new franchises: Criollos de Caguas and Cachorros de Ponce. This brings the total number of teams to 45. There will continue to be 8 divisions, 3 with 5 teams and 5 with 6 teams. Caguas will be part of the Central Section and Ponce will be part of the Southern Section. Previously, in 2021, the Gigantes de Carolina were admitted to the league.
