The team played their home games at the Estadio Nacional de Tijuana.

Potros de Tijuana joined the Mexican Pacific League in 1977, taking championship titles in the 1987–1988 and 1990–1991 seasons to advance to the Caribbean Series in both times.

[1] The franchise actually was a descendant of the Triple-A Toros de Tijuana before the Mexican League reportedly to have stripped the Toros owner of his franchise and gave it to new owners, who renamed the team as the Potros de Tijuana.

[2][3] The new Toros ownership kept the same team name, logo, uniforms and history, as a result of the alleged political wrangling that went on in that league.

On 7 May 2009 the GBL announced the postponement of the Potros' inaugural season until 2010 due to Mexico's swine flu outbreak and the subsequent health risk and precautionary measures that resulted from it.
