Liga Baseball Philippines (stylized as LIGA Baseball Philippines; abbreviated as LBP) is a semi-professional baseball league in the Philippines.
History The Liga Baseball Philippines organization launched its baseball tournament in June 2024 in cooperation with the state sports agency Philippine Sports Commission and the national sports association Philippine Amateur Baseball Association. Eight teams took part in the first season and contended for the LBP Tingzon Cup at the Rizal Memorial Baseball Stadium in Manila. The IPPC Hawks became the inaugural champions defeating the UST Golden Sox in the twice-to-win final series.
The second season featuring night games will commence in May 23, 2026 with the trophy named as the LBP Celebrity Cup. League games will be held at the Felino Marcelino Sr. Baseball Stadium in Taguig due to ongoing renovations at the Rizal diamond. Eight teams will still compete, but the IPPC will not be defending their title.
