Baseball is the national game of Nicaragua, and is one of the most popular sports in the country. Nicaragua has a professional baseball league, the Nicaraguan Professional Baseball League, consisting of four teams, playing in the winter, and an semiprofessional league, El Campeonato German Pomares, playing in spring and summer. The national baseball team has been successful in the past, mainly throughout the 1970s. Nicaragua and near-by Panama are two countries who have baseball as their national sport, rather than soccer, the national sport of many Central American countries.

quote
| - "After all, to say Nicaraguans are baseball-crazy seems ludicrously inadequate. The game is part of the air people breathe; the crack of the bat permeates hot, tropical nights; it moves up from the barrios; the game even peppers the language with borrowed English expressions, like 'play ball,' and 'home run,' used in a colloquial sense."
