The Azules de Veracruz (English: Veracruz Blues) were a professional baseball team that played in the Mexican League from 1940 to 1951. Originally from Veracruz, Mexico, the team relocated to Mexico City shortly after its foundation, while keeping the Veracruz name. Under the ownership of Jorge Pasquel (who also briefly served as league president during this time), Azules won league championships in 1940, 1941, 1944 and 1951.
