The Charros de Jalisco baseball team has more than 200 children from 5 to 14 years of age training at it’s new academy at the Charros stadium, said Charros administrative director Roberto Castellon. The idea is to continue promoting the sport and build the Charros brand in the metro through this community outreach and also to look for talented youths to bring into the sport in the long term. 

Charros fans were surely disappointed by their rout in Culiacan this week during the final 3 games of the Mexican Pacific League championship series. The Charros, which had seemed to roll over most opponents in their first season back in the league in 20 years, were even expected by Culiacan baseball fans to beat the Tomateros. But it was not to be.

It may be the off-season in baseball’s Mexican Pacific League (LMP) but the Guadalajara-based Charrros de Jalisco are continuing to make headlines after finishing runners-up to the Tomateros de Culiacan in their debut campaign. 

Culiacan is up three games to one in the championship series as of Monday afternoon. The Charros had multiple opportunities to score as they loaded the bases 3 separate times during the game but were unable to capitalize. As a team, the Charros were 2 for 10 with runners in scoring position and stranded 11 runners.

Guadalajara golfer Carlos Ortiz has notched up his second best result in his fledgling PGA career with an 11th-place finish in the Farmer's Insurance Open at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, California.

The Charros used strong pitching from starter Juan Delgadillo and relievers Terance Marin and Manny Acosta to shutout the Tomateros de Culiacan in the 2nd game of the Liga Mexicana del Pacifico last night and even the Championship series at 1 game apiece.

Charros de Jalisco baseball fans were surely disappointed by the team’s rout in Culiacan this week during the final three games of the Mexican Pacific League championship series. The Charros, who had seemed to roll over most opponents in their first season back in the league in 20 years, were even expected by Culiacan baseball fans to beat the Tomateros. But it was not to be. With the exception of the first game, where the Tomateros de Culiacan used an offensive explosion to win, the oponents used very good pitching to shut down the Charros’ potent offense. 

The Charros de Jalisco recorded a 4-0 series victory over the Venados de Mazatlan to advance to the semi-finals of the Liga Mexicana del Pacífico (LMP) playoffs.
