Inaugural games of the Major League Baseball could be held at the Sustainable Stadium of Yucatan , which will begin construction in the first quarter of 2022.
Mérida, Yucatán, (January 12, 2022).- The possibility of Major League Baseball coming to Yucatan lies not only in the 81-game season played at home, but also the weather makes it more comfortable for baseball players.
At least that is what César Esparza, partner of the company Game of Ball Inc., announced, who in an interview said that one of the biggest bets of this project (the Stadium) is to attract the inaugural games of the MLB in Mexico.
This is because the first weeks of games take place in the north-central part of the United States, where low temperatures affect the total performance of baseball players.
“Minnesota, Detroit, have empty stadiums at the start of the season,” said the partner at Ballgame Inc-. who expressed that there are already talks and discussions with the MLB to present this proposal, which he said will be combined with the tourism offer of Yucatan and the southeastern region of the country.

Likewise, he considered that another of the advantages of Yucatan is that “it has a season of 81 games at home, that is, they have game inventories that they can take to other venues.”
He added that the idea is to bring MLB game every year and to make it a tradition for Mërida, “that the Major League season could begin in Yucatán.”
