History

In 1957, the first full season of professional baseball in Nicaragua, the "Melenudos de León" (León Mane-men) were skippered by manager Tony Castaño, whose pitching staff included Conrado Marrero, formerly of the Washington Senators. In the following 1957–58 season, Cuban pitcher Manuel Montejo of León threw the country's first professional no-hitter, in a 5–0 win over Cinco Estrellas on November 5, 1957.

Leones won the 1958 Pan American Series (Serie Panamericana), a one-off international club tournament against Venados de Mazatlán of the Mexican Pacific League and Vanytor de Barranquilla of the Colombian league. They also won the 2019 Latin American Series, the other counterpart of Caribbean Series, in a final game against the Chileros de Xalapa of the Mexican Liga Invernal Veracruzana.

The team has also won the most titles in Nicaragua's amateur league, the Germán Pomares Ordóñez First Division (Campeonato Nacional de Béisbol Superior Germán Pomares Ordoñez), with 20 (1939, 1943, 1960, 1962–64, 1967, 1968, 1973, 1974, 1981, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1990, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2003, and 2019).
