Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Distinguish Шаблон:Infobox baseball team Estrellas Orientales (English: Eastern Stars), also known as Estrellas de Oriente, is a baseball team in the Dominican Winter League. Based in San Pedro de Macorís, the team has historically struggled, winning championships only in 1936, 1954, 1968 and 2019.

History

The team was established on 15 December 1910 with the idea of competing against Tigres del Licey, that dominated the Dominican League during those years. Estrellas Orientales won their first title in 1936 defeating Santiago Baseball Club, Tigres del Licey and Leones del Escogido. The team won the championship for the second time in 1954 and again in 1968.[1]

In 2019, after 51 years, Estrellas Orientales won their fourth title after defeating Toros del Este in the championship series.[2]
