Pecos League

What Pecos League does

Pecos League of Professional Baseball Clubs is a private, for-profit independent professional baseball league founded in August 2010 in Van Horn, Texas, and currently administered from a Houston, Texas mailing address (PO Box 271489). The league operates 16 teams organized into Mountain and Pacific Divisions across eight U.S. states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas. It runs a short-season independent schedule (May 22 to July 28) targeted at cities without Major or Minor League Baseball teams, with approximately 22 players per roster split between experienced players and rookies. It is the only league in the world that does not use a designated hitter, maintaining 2019 National League Rules with the pitcher batting.

The league's core product is professional baseball entertainment, delivered in-person at community ballparks and remotely via PecosLeague.TV, YouTube, and Vimeo streaming. Its technology stack is conventional and event-driven: official scoring is provided by Presto Sports (starting 2026, replacing Pointstreak which had served the league from 2011-2025), and the league sells a custom Rawlings game ball — the only ball permitted in Pecos League games — through its online store since 2012. Operations span live event management, team website hosting, multi-platform streaming, and merchandise e-commerce. The sole disclosed director is Commissioner Andrew Dunn, one of five original founders.

Revenue is generated entirely through team-level operations: ticket sales, local and regional sponsorships, concessions, streaming broadcasts, and merchandise. Named sponsors include Chevron, Core Scientific, Buy Lewis, and North Platte Toyota. Pricing is per-event or per-item (e.g., merchandise shirts listed at $29.99) rather than through enterprise contracts. The league has executed one acquisition (the San Rafael Pacifics, 2019) and continues to expand through single-market franchise additions and substitutions, with the most recent entry being the Grand Junction Razorback Suckers in 2026.

Regional players

• New Mexico Collegiate Baseball League: Summer collegiate baseball league operating in New Mexico. Geographic peer to Pecos League's Mountain Division markets, similar in community/spectator model but at a different player tier.
• Texas Collegiate League: Summer collegiate baseball league with strong Texas presence. Comparable to Pecos League's Texas footprint and community-based spectator baseball model, though operates at the collegiate (non-professional) player tier.

Broad incumbents

• MLB (Major League Baseball): The dominant professional baseball organization in the US. Indirect comparable as the apex of the player-development pipeline that Pecos League feeds into; relevant for understanding competitive and partnership dynamics with indie baseball.

Direct peers

• United Shore Professional Baseball League: Independent professional baseball league based in metro Detroit. Comparable in being a privately operated independent league with single-venue/high-density game schedule, contrasting with Pecos League's multi-city model but similar in indie economics.
• American Association of Professional Baseball: Independent professional baseball league operating in the central/midwestern US. Most direct comparable to Pecos League in business model (ticket/sponsor/concession-driven independent league), player level, and geographic community-based team structure.
• Frontier League: Independent professional baseball league with teams across the Midwest and Eastern US. Closely comparable to Pecos League in scale, season structure, and community-driven independent team model.
• Pioneer League: Independent baseball league focused on the Mountain West and Western US. Direct geographic and operational peer to Pecos League, with overlapping markets (Colorado, Utah, Montana) and similar community-based team economics.
• Atlantic League: Highest-profile independent professional baseball league in the US, with 'Partner League' status from MLB. Comparable to Pecos League in core business model (independent pro baseball league with multiple community-based teams) but operates at a higher player/financial tier.
