Industriales de Valencia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Industriales de Valencia was a baseball club who played from 1955 through 1968 in the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League. The Industriales joined the league as a replacement for the Santa Marta BBC.

The Industriales were based at Valencia, the capital city of Carabobo state, and played their home games at Estadio Cuatricentenario.

The Valencia club won five season titles, four championships and three sub-championships in its 13-season history, representing Venezuela in the first stage of the Caribbean Series in the 1956 and 1958 tournaments. It also won the 1961 Interamerican Series.

Despite their successful performance at the league, the Industriales folded in 1968 due to low attendance numbers. They relocated to Portuguesa state for the 1968–1969 season, and were renamed Llaneros de Acarigua.
