The Pacifics franchise was launched by Centerfield Partners LLC of Dublin, California. Along with a sister team owned and operated by Centerfield Partners, the Sonoma County Grapes, the Pacifics made their debut in the 2012 baseball season at 1,000-seat Albert Park in San Rafael.[1] The team was purchased by Gabe Suárez in December of 2018 and the Pacifics won the 2019 Pacific Association championship after beating the highly favored Sonoma Stompers in the championship series. The Pacifics were purchased by Andrew Dunn, founder of the Pecos league in March of 2020 after the Pacifics and the Pacific Association agreed to not continue their affiliation due to major differences in operating a sound independent baseball league.
