Estadio de Béisbol Beto Ávila is a stadium in Cancún, Mexico.[1] It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the Quintana Roo Tigres Mexican League baseball team.[1] It holds 9,500 people.[1] It is named to honor Beto Ávila the Mexican baseball player[2] whose last year of active play (1960) was with the Tigres del México.

In the 1980s the park, originally with a capacity of 4,500 was the homefield of the Marlins de Cancún.[1] It became an LMB park in 1996 when the Langosteros de Quintana Roo (Quintana Roo Lobstermen) were promoted to that league. The park was expanded to seat 7,000.[3] However after the Lobstermen left Cancún the stadium was heavily damaged by Hurricane Wilma in October 2005.[1] In 2006 renovations were undertaken to rebuild and expand the stadium and draw an LMB team back to Cancún.[1] After the 28 million peso renovation the Tigres played the 2007 season with Beto Ávila as their homefield.[1]
