I am perfectly aware that Primera División de México is a football competition and what the literal meaning of its official title is; that was my point. The fact is that "Mexican League" is often used to refer to the PDdM, and a fair proportion of the Google search results are for this football competition. A slight majority may be for the baseball competition, but enough results (even on the first page) are for the football competition that we cannot say this is a truly unambiguous name. Mexican League should be a disambiguation page between the football and baseball leagues (and perhaps other sports). If this page is moved at all it needs an unambiguous title, Mexican League (baseball) or Liga Mexicana (baseball) or some such. Knepflerle (talk) 17:39, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I see what you mean. I agree, Mexican League should disambiguate. I request that this page then be named Mexican League (baseball). —

That'd be fine with me! Knepflerle (talk) 15:04, 30 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So what happens now? —

Article expansion

This article could use some work. How many games does each team play in a season? Do they use the Designated Hitter rule? How are extra innings handled? Who is the league's commissioner? Schoop (talk) 17:14, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Those are great questions! I'll get on top of them to have them answered in order to include that info in the article. Dabackgammonator (talk) 21:46, 30 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The historic significance of the Mexican League should be discussed. It offered black American baseball players the chance to play with and against white American baseball players, proving they could thrive. With all the attention paid to the Negro Leagues, which played only irregularly and were themselves segregated, it's amazing how little attention is paid to the Mexican League; if I hadn't done a book report on Roy Campanella when I was a little kid, I don't think I'd ever have known the central role the Mexican League played in desegregation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.175.220.10 (talk) 17:57, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Updates to image map

The

Tecolotes de Nuevo Laredo). But those two teams are no longer in the LMB as of 2011.[1][2] The template {{LMB Labelled Map}} has already been updated to remove the two extra teams. Perhaps it is also time to update the image file. 67.86.64.52 (talk) 03:24, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply

Move

I was

Mexican League (baseball) to Mexican League. The latter already redirected to the article, so the disambiguator was unnecessary. This is clearly the primary use of the term. Further, reviewing the pages edit histories revealed a confusing mess that was the result of several years of back and forth. This seemed the simplest and most effective solution.Cúchullain t/c 17:10, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply

Rewrite tag

I added a rewrite tag to the article as much of it seems to have been written by editors whose first language is not English (understandably). Grammar and phrasing could use a major overhaul in several places to bring it up to Wikipedia standards. Metz77 (talk) 13:59, 21 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
