Estadio de la Revolución is a sports arena located near the downtown area of Torreón in Coahuila, Mexico. [1] It has a seating capacity of 7,689. [3] Though used mainly for baseball games, it sometimes hosts concerts and other non-sport events. [1] It is the home field of the Algodoneros de Unión Laguna baseball team, and as such, it is the oldest professional baseball field in Mexico still in function. [1] Since it was originally constructed as a multi sport stadium and featured a running track the Estadio de la Revolución features the largest foul territory of any ball park within the Mexican League, the area of the former running track. [1] The stadium is named to commemorate the Mexican Revolution of 1910–1920, a political change that was still recent at the time of the venue's opening on 15 September 1932. [1] The stadium was renovated in the fall of 2002 to provide a refurbished appearance for the baseball team's reorganization, renaming, and new season starting in 2003. [2]
