Colombia 6, Panama 5
In a back-and-forth contest, Colombia came back from deficits of 4-3 and 5-4 to defeat Panama in walk-off fashion. Panama trailed 3-1 through seven innings before rallying for three runs in the top of the eighth to take a one-run lead. Colombia tied it up on a Mauricio Ramos double in the bottom of the frame, but Edgar Figueroa was thrown out at the plate after a relay from left fielder Daniel Jimenez to shortstop Eduardo Thomas to catcher Christian Bethancourt, preventing the go-ahead run from scoring. Panama went up again in the top of the ninth, plating the go-ahead run when an inning-ending double play was overturned on review. But Colombia would not be denied, scoring twice in the bottom of the ninth to put the game away.
Panama 3, Puerto Rico 2
Panama used a pair of late-game rallies to walk-off with a 3-2 win in the tournament opener. Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the eighth, Olmo Rosario hit a game-tying homer and Christian Bethancourt later added a go-ahead RBI single. Panama, however, let that lead slip away when it booted a potential game-ending double play in the top of the ninth, allowing the tying run to score from third. That set the stage for Edgar Munoz, who roped a walk-off RBI single to end it.
Colombia 6, Venezuela 1
Colombia scored four times in the top of the third inning, courtesy of three run-scoring singles, including a two-run single to right field by Reynaldo Rodriguez. Colombia added solo runs in the fourth and eighth innings to provide more than enough run support for the club’s pitching staff — Eduar Lopez (1 2/3 innings), Luis Moreno (1 1/3), Sugar Ray Marimon (one), Francisco Jimenez (two), Rodrigo Benoit (2/3), Ronald Ramirez (1 1/3) and Donald Goodson (one) combined to shut down Venezuela’s bats, yielding just one run on four hits.
Dominican Republic 3, Mexico 2
A two-run seventh inning and an outstanding performance from the bullpen lifted the Dominican Republic past Mexico. Left-hander Tyler Alexander started and gave up two runs on five hits over three innings, but the D.R. relief corps rose to the occasion, with Frank Garces (two innings), Jenrry Mejia (2/3), Luis Castillo (1/3), Jhan Mariñez (2/3), Reymin Guduan (1/3), Fernando Abad (one) and Juan Minaya (one) combined to shut out Mexico on four hits the rest of the way.
Group standings
Colombia: 2-0

Key facts about each team
Caimanes de Barranquilla (Colombia)
The Caimanes clinched their spot in the Caribbean Series by winning their 12th title in the Colombian Professional Baseball League. This will be their second straight year in the Caribbean Series; though they went 0-5 in the round-robin phase of last year’s tournament.
Gigantes del Cibao (Dominican Republic)
The Gigantes are red-hot coming into the Caribbean Series after cruising to their second LIDOM championship — and first in seven years. After dropping the Jan. 17 series opener, the Gigantes reeled off four straight wins to clinch the Dominican title. The Dominican Republic has produced the Caribbean Series champion in back-to-back seasons, with Aguilas Cibaenas taking the title in 2021 and Toros del Este winning it all in ’20.
Charros de Jalisco (Mexico)
The Charros will compete in the Caribbean Series for the second time after winning the Mexican Pacific League. They also competed in 2019, when each team in their group went 2-2 in the round-robin stage, but the Charros were on the wrong end of the tiebreaker.
Mexico is seeking its first Caribbean Series champion since 2016, when Venados de Mazatlan raised the trophy.
Astronautas de Los Santos (Panama)
The Astronautas will represent Panama for a second time after winning their second straight title in the Panamanian Professional Baseball League. They also won in their inaugural 2019-20 season, though they were based in Chiriquí at the time. The ensuing 2020-21 season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Panama snapped a lengthy Caribbean Series drought in 2019, when Toros de Herrera claimed the country’s second title. The other came in 1950.
Criollos de Caguas (Puerto Rico)
The Criollos claimed their second straight title — and fourth in the last six years — in the Liga de Béisbol Profesional Roberto Clemente. Though they finished as the Caribbean Series runner-up last year, the Criollos have claimed the title five times, including back-to-back championships in 2017 and ‘18.
Their five Caribbean Series titles are tied for the third-most by any club.
Navegantes del Magallanes (Venezuela)
The Navegantes claimed their first title in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League since winning back-to-back championships in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons. They have won two Caribbean Series titles, though the last came in 1979.
Venezuela has not produced the Caribbean Series champion since 2009, when the Tigres de Aragua claimed the title.
