Qualified teams

Notes
^a The association of the hosting nation, the Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) Baseball Association, announced the withdrawal of China. "Delay in administrative procedures" and difficulty of purchasing return flight tickets for the Chinese delegation due to Golden Week holiday in China was cited as issues which caused China's withdrawal.[2] ^b It was originally planned to have the top two teams from the Eastern division of the 2017 Asian Baseball Cup qualify. However, the East Asia Cup had to be cancelled due to a lack of a host, so Hong Kong and Philippines were invited based on WBSC and BFA Rankings.[1]

Group stage

The first stage would consist of each team playing against each other team in its group once. With the withdrawal of China, all games originally planned for China were considered forfeits and wins for the opposition.[3]
