The Brown Bears baseball team is the varsity intercollegiate athletic team of the
Division I and are members of the Ivy League. Previously, they had played in the Eastern Intercollegiate Baseball League
, which consisted of schools in the Ivy League along with Army and Navy before the Ivy League began to sponsor baseball entirely in 1992.
The team was a part of history in 2023. In November 2022, freshman, Olivia Pichardo became the first woman named to an NCAA Division I baseball roster, making the team as a walk-on.[2] In March 2023, she had a plate appearance as a pinch-hitter.[3]
