Best Answer

Baseball is the most popular sport in several Caribbean countries. Cuba has a successful professional league, and the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico have thriving winter leagues and youth leagues. The Netherlands Antilles is most often the Caribbean representative in the Little League World Series.

In countries with stronger ties to Europe, football (soccer) and cricket are more popular than baseball. This is true in Trinidad & Tobago, Barbados and Martinique.
