During the 1994 season, he was traded to the Rieleros de Aguascalientes, where he spent the rest of the season and played until 1999, where he, again, was traded during the season to the Tigres Capitalinos. Vizcarra was part of the Tigres team that won back to back LMB titles in 2000 and 2001. In 2004, he signed with the Piratas de Campeche and won the Mexican League title that same year.
