The All-Senria Baseball League (Senrian: hangul, Zensenryuu Yakyuu Renmei), or ASBL, is the top-level professional baseball league in Senria. Formed in 1936, the league consists of twenty-four teams divided into two leagues and four divisions as of 2022.

Baseball was established in Senria by 1900, with small collegiate leagues emerging in the 1910s and the first efforts to organize professional teams occurring in the 1920s; however, the Senrian Revolution and Great War disrupted the professionalization process, contributing to the ASBL's late founding when compared to the Rizealand Baseball League and Arucian Baseball League. The ASBL was established with eight teams in 1936... [split into leagues in the 50s when the league jumps from 8 teams to 12, then the leagues split into divisions in the 60s when it goes from 12 teams to 16; it expands to 20 in the 80s and 24 in the 2000s]
