El Paso Chihuahuas unveil new name, specialty logo and uniforms

The El Paso Chihuahuas will change their name to the El Paso Margaritas for a limited series of games this season.

The team has unveiled a specialty logo and uniforms that are part of the league’s “Copa de la Diversion” (Fun Cup) series of games.

According to the Minor League Baseball site, margaritas hold a significant place in El Paso’s history, “considering the beverage’s origins trace back to 1942 in El Paso.” MiLB said the beverage represents more than a drink: “it represents El Paso’s welcoming culture, its soul and the good times associated with the city and the team.”

The Chihuahuas will wear the new uniforms during five “Copa Night” games. CLICK HERE to buy tickets. CLICK HERE to buy the new Margaritas apparel.
