He played for Morelia for two seasons, appearing in the Apertura 2002, Clausura 2003 tournaments where the team came second place and reached the championship finals in two consecutive seasons.
In mid-2003, he was transferred to Pachuca where the expectations did not materialize, as he spent most of his time on the bench. In 19 games, he scored one goal against Chiapas and he struggled to find his form. Despite his poor performances, Pachuca still managed to reach the finals against Tigres of Monterrey. Tigres won the first leg 1–0 at home. Tigres began winning the match in the second leg, but Pachuca launched a great turnaround, and Pachuca won the match 3–1, with Bautista scoring the last goal of the match to secure his first title as a professional.
Bautista joined Guadalajara in 2004. In his first season, he scored nine goals in 19 games and was the team's top scorer.
