Bravos de León baseball - roberb7 - 04-11-2017
Professional baseball returned to the State of Guanajuato, after a 25-year absence, on March 31. The Bravos de León compete in the AAA-level Mexican League. They will be playing their home games at Estadio Domingo Santana, which is off Blvd. Juan Alonso de Torres, north of the city centre; it's the boulevard that you would normally take if you were going to Plaza Mayor.
The first home game will be April 18. Here's the schedule: http://www.milb.com/schedule/results.jsp?cid=434
