Baseball at the 2019 Pan American Games was held from July 27 to August 4. The venue for the competition was the baseball stadium located at the Villa María del Triunfo cluster.[1][2] The tournament was part of the 2019 edition of the Pan American Games, hosted by Lima, Peru.

A total of eight men's teams (each consisting of up to 24 players) competed. Thus, a total of 192 athletes were scheduled to compete.[3] After having been contested for the first time in 2015, women's baseball was dropped for this edition.[4]

Puerto Rico won the gold medal game over Canada, 6–1, and were undefeated during the tournament. Nicaragua finished in third place.

The top finishers in the event that were not already qualified for the 2019 WBSC Premier12 were awarded the final one or two spots (depending on other qualification paths) in the Americas Qualifying Event for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.[5] Nicaragua and Colombia so qualified for the Americas Qualifying Event via their third-place and fourth-place finishes.
