After the Nuevo Laredo Owls moved to Tijuana, Baja California, the team was called the Toros de Tijuana for one season. The 2004 Mexican League team led the Liga in attendance their first season (548,863) and made the playoffs despite managerial turmoil that saw Carlos Hernandez, Alejandro Ortiz and Tomas Herrera all take the reigns. The Toros were 49-48 and were led by Derrick White (.361/.472/.587) and Carlos Valencia (.324/.363/.503, tied for the Liga lead with 129 hits).
