The eighth season of Uplantic Baseball is upon us!

After last season’s inaugural UUBO merger season, the Lia Puedris Kings have moved up to UA for the first time, while the Carver Canaries are back down in the NPL for 1935.

Will Mario Olivo and the Delle Stars continue their dominant run with a fifth straight Windsor Cup title or will we see a new champ this year?
