The team has achieved a home run record in the first four games of the championship.\n\nDuring the match against Venezuela, the Dominican power was felt from the start. Juan Soto, Ketel Marte, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Fernando Tatis Jr. hit home runs in the first three innings of the game.\n\nWith these home runs, the Dominican team reached a total of 13 home runs in their first four games of the tournament. This figure surpasses the previous record, which was 12 home runs, established by Mexico in the 2009 edition.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>The Dominican offensive power has been one of the team&#8217;s main weapons.<\/p><cite>Alofoke Deportes<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe team, led by Albert Pujols, has demonstrated its offensive capability with a lineup full of Major League stars, capable of changing the course of a game with a single swing.\n\nIn addition to setting this new record, the Caribbean team is approaching the mark for the most home runs connected by a team in a single World Baseball Classic. That record also belongs to Mexico, with 14 home runs in 2009.\n\nWith the performance shown by the Dominican hitters, it would not be surprising if the team surpasses that figure and continues to write its name in the history of the tournament.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dominican Republic Sets New Home Run Record in the World Baseball Classic MIAMI \u2013 The Dominican Republic&#8217;s offense continues to make its mark on the 2026 World Baseball Classic, setting a new milestone in the tournament.
