Panama Metro is looking to snap a long drought to win a National Youth Baseball Tournament title.
“Metrillos”, the top winners of the championship in these youth baseball competitions, will have to face Coclé in the finals, when the final series begins this Tuesday at the Remón Cantera Stadium in Aguadulce.
Panama Metro are the top winners of Panamanian youth baseball with 21 crowns, have not topped the podium since 2016 and hope to break the drought now in 2024, where they will have to face the “Leñita Roja” commanded by Rodrigo Meron.

Panama Metro, with Chirican pilot Kenny Serracín, hopes to break an eight-year drought without the possibility of winning the crown and where he often recalls the era of coach Cristóbal Giron when he won seven titles in command of the capital’s troops.
The Metropolitan team was not among the favorites, but in the current championship they went through the stages until the final.
In the regular round of the current championship, Panama Metro finished with an average of 13 wins and 9 losses.
In the second leg of the Eight Teams round, Panama Metro left Herrera in the ninth en route to a close 4-3 series win.
But in the semi-finals, the Capitals defeated Panama Oeste (current champions) and won the series 4-1.
Now the metropolitans will have to face Coclé, who won three youth baseball titles between 1962, 2018 and 2021, in the grand final.
