Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Acereros de Monclova — The team debuted on 23 March 1974 as the Mineros de Coahuila, but the entry says they 'replaced the Mineros de Coahuila in the 1976 season' — this is contradictory; the franchise entered the league in 1974 as Mineros de Coahuila and continued under that name u

Acereros de Monclova — The entry states the team was rebranded as Acereros del Norte after being purchased by Northern Steel Group in 1992. The correct ownership group was Grupo Acerero del Norte (GAN), not 'Northern Steel Group'.

Caliente de Durango — The claim that Caliente de Durango is the first Mexican professional baseball team to include a corporate sponsor in its name is incorrect, as other Mexican League teams have had corporate sponsors in their names.

Caliente de Durango — The claim that the team retained the same players and manager Luis Borges from the suspended Generales is unverified and likely inaccurate, as the Caliente de Durango franchise was a new expansion team, not a direct continuation of the Generales roster and sta

Diablos Rojos del México — The team's record league championships is stated as 18, but as of the current widely-known canon, the Diablos Rojos have 17 league championships (the 2025 Baseball Champions League Americas title is not a Mexican League championship).

Diablos Rojos del México — The claim that the team debuted on 30 March 1940 against the Azules de Veracruz is incorrect; the Diablos Rojos' first game was against the Azules de Veracruz on 31 March 1940, not 30 March.

Dorados de Chihuahua — The entry states the Dorados played in the Mexican National League in 1946, but their participation in that league is not widely documented and may be a factual error.

Leones de Yucatán — The entry states the team was founded in 1954 by Alvaro Ponce Vidiella and Humberto 'Beto' Abimerhi Abimerhi, but the widely accepted founder is Alvaro Ponce Vidiella; Humberto Abimerhi is not typically cited as a co-founder in canonical sources.

Leones de Yucatán — The claim that the nickname comes from a beer company built by the Ponce family is inaccurate; the team's nickname 'Leones' (Lions) is not derived from a beer company—the Ponce family owned the Carta Clara brewery, but the team name was chosen for other reason

Olmecas de Tabasco — The entry claims the franchise sat out the 1976 season and moved to Nuevo Laredo as the Tecolotes de Nuevo Laredo before returning in 1977. In established canon, the Tecolotes de Nuevo Laredo were a separate franchise that joined the Mexican League in 1940 and

Pericos de Puebla — The LORE section says the club was sold to Don Castor in 1939 and renamed Chevrolet, but the owner was not typically referred to as 'Don Castor' in standard histories; the team was owned by a car dealership, making this an invented name.

Pericos de Puebla — The LORE section says the club changed its name to Pericos in 1942, inspired by the custom of wealthy households keeping a talking parrot at the front door, but this origin story is not widely documented; the name is commonly attributed to the green color of u

Piratas de Campeche — The stadium was not named 'Estadio Cruz Azul Nelson Barrera' in 2001; it was originally known as Estadio Cruz Azul or Estadio de Béisbol de Campeche and was renamed Estadio Nelson Barrera in 2009.

Piratas de Campeche — Francisco Estrada was not a player-manager in 1983; he was only the manager and did not play that season.
