Weather…

The Quisqueya Juan Marichal Stadium is the historic epicenter of baseball in the Dominican Republic, located in Santo Domingo. Opened in 1955 during the Trujillo era as Estadio Trujillo, it was one of the most sophisticated sporting facilities in Latin America at the time. Today, it bears the name of Juan Marichal, the legendary pitcher and the first Dominican inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The stadium has a seating capacity of approximately 14,500 and serves as the home field for the city's two rival teams, Tigres del Licey and Leones del Escogido. During the Dominican Winter League (LIDOM), the stadium becomes a bustling center of cultural life, showcasing the deep passion Dominicans have for their national sport. It has frequently hosted the Caribbean Series, bringing together top teams from across the region. The Quisqueya Stadium is not just a sports venue but a cultural landmark that has witnessed the evolution of Dominican baseball for over half a century.
