The Arizona–Mexico League is an independent baseball league that had scheduled to begin in 2017, however, with the current political scenario, and the border issues within the league area, the league is currently working toward playing in 2018.

History

The Arizona–Mexico League began as a low-level circuit in American minor league baseball that existed as an affiliated Class C league from 1955–58. The Arizona–Mexico League was the successor league of the Arizona–Texas League which existed from 1930–32, 1937–41, 1947–50 and 1952-54. From 1928 to 1930, it was known as the Arizona State League.

A second version of the Arizona–Mexico League was formed in 2003 as an independent league. Four teams played 16 games before the league voted to disband due to financial difficulties.
