Starting 1973, the team returned to its former name and won the championship title in 1975.
The franchise once again returned in 1983 and was renamed the Astros de Tampico for that season, playing again as the Alijadores in 1984.
Since then, no other team based in Tampico has participated in Mexican professional baseball.
