The stadium hosts the MLB Mexico City Series. In December 2019, Major League Baseball (MLB) announced it would hold two games at the stadium in April 2020 between the San Diego Padres and the Arizona Diamondbacks. These games were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The first MLB games played at the stadium were on 29 and 30 April 2023 between the San Diego Padres and the San Francisco Giants. These were the first regular season MLB games in Mexico City.
The ballpark was named for the Diablos Rojos owner Alfredo Harp Helú and it is nicknamed Diamante de Fuego (English: The Fire Diamond).
