After the first season at Doyle Park the team is looking to relocate and play Tuesday only games for 2023 season.
The Scuba Divers Name
The Santa Rosa Scuba Divers play in Santa Rosa, California.
The name Santa Rosa is no stranger to the Pecos League.
The Scuba Divers name comes from the Original days of the New Mexico Mountain Division Pecos League.
The Blue Hole of Santa Rosa, NM is often a surprising attraction for visitors traveling through the New Mexico desert. It’s a popular natural pool once used by cowboys or people traveling along Route 66 for cooling off in the desert heat. Today, visitors come for recreational swimming, and it’s one of the top diving spots in the country.
Blue Hole gets its name for the rich pure blue tones of the water. It’s a unique waterhole that refills with 3,000 gallons of water every minute from the natural flow. The bell-shaped design has a surface diameter of 80-feet and 130-feet at the bottom – high visibility makes it possible to see the floor.
Visitors to the Blue Hole can enjoy activities including:
Scuba diving
Swimming and cliff jumping
Fishing at Blue Hole Fishing Pond
The City of Santa Rosa New Mexico attempted to get the Pecos League to move a team into Santa Rosa.
The concept was created and the team was named the Scuba Divers after the famous Blue Diving hole in Santa Rosa.
Santa Rosa never got a Pecos League Team but they did get an agreement to host one home game a year for the Las Vegas NM Train Robbers
Those games turned out to be some of the wildest games in league history due to field conditions.
In 2022 the Pecos League launched an expansion team in Santa Rosa California finally bringing the Scuba Divers out of the water an onto the field.
In 2017 the Pecos League moved to California relocating the Train Robbers from Las Vegas, New Mexico to Bakersfield. This ended baseball in Santa Rosa, New Mexico and the hope of the Santa Rosa Scuba Divers ever playing a game.
On July 14, 2014 the Las Vegas Train Robbers and Trinidad Triggers were scheduled to play a game. Several MLB scouts attended the game in hopes of scouting Trinidad Triggers pitchers.
Three of which were signed the next week. In the first inning rain opened up raining 2 inches in one hour.
