History
Founded in 1945, the league was previously known as the Liga Invernal de Sonora (English: Sonora Winter League) and Liga Sonora-Sinaloa (English: Sonora-Sinaloa League) before adopting its present name in 1970.
Although not officially recognized by Minor League Baseball, it is probably a stronger organization than a number of circuits in the United States.
