The Mariachis de Guadalajara (English: Guadalajara Mariachis) are a professional baseball team in the Mexican League based in Zapopan, Jalisco. Their home ballpark is Estadio Panamericano, and has a capacity of 16,500 people.[1] The Mariachis were established in December 2020 and started playing in the 2021 season.[2]

History[]

The team was established on 8 December 2020, when Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador announced that two new teams would join the Mexican League for the 2021 season: a revival of El Águila de Veracruz (the original franchise was sold in 2017 and moved to Nuevo Laredo) and the Mariachis de Guadalajara. The creation of the Mariachis was a joint effort between Mexican government, the State of Jalisco and private investment.[3][4]

With the establishment of the Mariachis, Guadalajara joined Monterrey as the only two cities in Mexico that have teams in both the summer league and the winter league.[5]

In March 2021, former Texas Rangers and Anaheim Angels shortstop Benji Gil was announced as the Mariachis' manager for the 2021 season.[6]
