The San Jose State Spartans baseball team represents San José State University in NCAA Division I college baseball as a member of the Mountain West Conference.[2]

San Jose State fielded its first baseball team in 1890, although the current SJSU baseball media guide only provides records dating back to 1911.[3][4][5][6] The team plays its home games at San Jose Municipal Stadium in San Jose, California. The team formerly played select home games at Blethen Field, which was located on San Jose State's south campus.[6] In 2014, SJSU released plans to build a new baseball stadium to replace Blethen Field.[7]
