Internet League Blaseball (ILB) is a professional Blaseball organization based on the Immaterial Plane. It is the second-oldest known professional Blaseball league, succeeding Ultra League Blaseball. About 24 teams from North America, Japan, Hawai'i, and Hades play in the league. The league is known to have existed since at least the start of Season AA in January 2000, with the league officially returning from siesta on July 20th, 2020 at the beginning of Season 1. During the Expansion Era, four Expansion Teams descended into the League, increasing the number of teams in the league from 20 to 24.
At the end of every season, the best performing team from each league faces off in the Internet Series to determine the champion of Blaseball. The Baltimore Crabs currently hold the record for the most Internet Series wins with 4 championships, having ascended after the third. The Atlantis Georgias and Ohio Worms are recorded to have 4 championship wins as well, having apparently taken place beyond the scope of Internet League Blaseball. Since the beginning of the Expansion Era, teams Evolve for every three championship wins, with the Hades Tigers, Atlantis Georgias, Ohio Worms, Baltimore Crabs, and Core Mechanics having reached Base 1 Evolution.
Currently-known entities within the ILB's management include:
- Boss, the CEO
- Parker MacMillan
IIII, the intern-interim commissioner - Lōotcrates, the League Historian
- The Hall Monitor, who is also currently the Food, Beverage, Tourism, and Gift Shop Director
The league also employs Umpires to watch over the games and keep things under control.

These Sub-League are known to have previously existed since Season B of Ultra League Blaseball, when the Bad League was renamed to the Evil League.
From Season 6 onwards, the ILB has been divided into the Wild League and the Mild League, which are each divided into a High and Low division. The divisional placement of each team was originally based on the teams' performance in Season 5, though a few teams have changed divisions since then.
