Asian Baseball Cup

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Asian Baseball Cup is a baseball tournament organized by the Baseball Federation of Asia. The Asian Baseball Cup is a second-level tournament to the Asian Baseball Championship. In 2012, the Asian Baseball Cup was divided into two separate divisions, East and West, alternatively called the East Asian Baseball Cup and West Asian Baseball Cup. From 2016, the Asian Baseball Cup tournaments shall be held biannually.[1]

The tournament serves as a qualifier for two teams that will later compete in the Asian Baseball Championship, along with Chinese Taipei, Japan, South Korea and China, which automatically qualify for the latter tournament and therefore do not compete at the Asian Baseball Cup.[1]
