# List of Dominican Summer League champions

This article provides a list of Dominican Summer League champions. The Dominican Summer League (DSL) is a professional baseball sports league operating in the Dominican Republic. Teams within the DSL are affiliates of Major League Baseball teams.

## League champions

The league normally holds a postseason championship series between its top two teams. The format of the series has varied, with single-game, best-of-three, and best-of-five formats used at different times. In 1990 and 1991, a round-robin tournament was contested between three teams. In 2021, there was no postseason. As of 2022, eight teams—six division winners and two wild card teams—qualify for the playoffs seeded by winning percentage regardless of division standing. All postseason series are in best-of-three format.
