Esqueletos de Vieques

Vieques Skeletons

League: Hostos.
Division: Archipiélago.
Nicknames: Esques, Huesús, Rosipúrpuras, La Necrópolis.
Vivas: “¡Por el cabo!”

Vieques has seen more waves of settlement than most of Puerto Rico—both from Europeans, as the island has been claimed by Scots, Danes, and Prussians at different times, and from Arawak people like the Igneri, predecessors of the Taínos.

Mascot: Tibiambino

(tibia “tibia” + bambino “slugger”)

We're not sure why a skeleton would want to play baseball, but here we are: Tibiambino, the mascot of the Esqueletos de Vieques, is a giant pink skeleton, shadowed in red, whose black eye sockets have picked up your pitch, and he is wielding a purple bone that is going to send that pitch 150+ meters over the center field wall.
