The Rio Grande Valley WhiteWings are a minor league baseball team in the independent United League and Texas Winter League. They are based in Harlingen, Texas. The WhiteWings began as a charter member of the Texas-Louisiana League in 1994, which became the Central Baseball League. The WhiteWings won the Texas-Louisiana League Championship in 2000, upsetting the San Angelo Colts and Amarillo Dillas to win the pennant under manager Eddie Dennis. After falling on hard times the WhiteWings suspended operations in 2003. In late 2005, United League Baseball announced that the WhiteWings would resume play as the first charter member of the new league in 2006. The team plays at Harlingen Field, which seats 4,500.
