Beograd 96 defeated Novi Sad three games to one in the best-of-five Serbian Baseball Championship Series. It's the 20th national title for Beograd 96.

The four-team Serbian Baseball League opened in 1994. The 2020 season was heavily influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. Restrictions imposed by the spreading of the infection forced the Serbian Baseball Federation to suspend the season various times this year.

"In the end, baseball prevailed," said SBF President Milan Zonic told WBSC.

Serbia is currently sitting 45th in the WBSC Baseball World Rankings.
