Estadio Chevron is a ballpark in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. It is the home of the Toros de Tijuana of the Mexican League. It was built in 1976.

History

The stadium was inaugurated on October 12, 1977, with a game between the Potros de Tijuana and the Águilas de Mexicali of the Mexican Pacific League. In 2004, professional baseball returned, now with a Mexican Baseball League franchise under the name "Toros de Tijuana". The following year the team changed its name to "Potros de Tijuana", as they were known in their previous iterations and would be from 2005 to 2008. It played host to the Tijuana Cimarrones of the Golden Baseball League for one season in 2010. Most recently, it has been hosting the second iteration of the Toros de Tijuana, members of the Liga Norte de México (League of Northern Mexico). This iteration of the Toros de Tijuana would join the Mexican Baseball Leagues in 2014. Tijuana National Stadium has also been the site of several México Second Division (second division) and México Third Division football clubs in the Mexican League System, such as Inter de Tijuana, Chivas Tijuana, and Nacional Tijuana. It was expanded in 2006 from its original capacity of 14,000 to 17,000.
