The Mississippi State Bulldogs baseball team is the varsity intercollegiate baseball team representing Mississippi State University in NCAA Division I college baseball. The program is a member of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). They are currently led by interim head coach Justin Parker. They have appeared in the College World Series 12 times, winning their first national championship in their most recent appearance in 2021.

History

Mississippi State has won 11 SEC Championships in 1948, 1949, 1965, 1966, 1970, 1971, 1979, 1985, 1987, 1989, and 2016. The first six were won in a playoff series (with the first two being best-of-five while the rest were a best-of-three series). Since the formation of the SEC Tournament in 1977, the Bulldogs have won it seven times, in 1979, 1985, 1987, 1990, 2001, 2005, and 2012. The seven tournament championships and six playoff championships are a total of 13 SEC postseason championships, the most of any school.

Prior to the formation of the SEC, the program won the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association championship in 1909 as well as the Southern Conference title in 1922 and 1924.

The program has also appeared in 34 NCAA Regionals and 12 College World Series. Out of its 12 College World Series trips, the program has appeared in two national championship series (2013 and 2021). Eight years after finishing as runner-up to the UCLA Bruins in 2013, the Mississippi State Bulldogs returned to the national championship series when on June 30, 2021, the club defeated the Vanderbilt Commodores with a score of 9–0 to finally secure its first National Championship title, which serves as the first national championship in a team-sport in school history. This 2021 National Championship was earned in a third consecutive trip to the College World Series (2018, 2019, 2021).

A Bulldogs pitcher was selected in the first round of the MLB draft 6 times.[http://www.nmnathletics.com/fls/16800/pdf/bb/bb_13mg.pdf?DB_OEM_ID=16800 Mississippi State University 2013 Baseball Media Guide] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131210213939/http://www.nmnathletics.com/fls/16800/pdf/bb/bb_13mg.pdf?DB_OEM_ID=16800|date=December 10, 2013}}

  • *2020 College World Series did not take place due to the cancellation of the 2020 college baseball season in the presence of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The team had achieved a 12–4 record to start the 2020 season before it was discontinued during March 2020.

In 2005, the Palmeiro Center, a {{convert|68000|sqft|m2|adj=on}} indoor practice facility, was built next to Dudy Noble. The facility, made possible by a gift from program alumnus Rafael Palmeiro and his wife Lynne, features an infield practice area, additional training area, and three batting cages. A baseball coaches' office complex located between the Palmeiro Center and Dudy Noble Field was also built in 2005. The complex, which includes a baseball heritage room, was made possible by contributions from former Bulldog players Jeff Brantley, Will Clark, Eric DuBose, Paul Maholm, Jay Powell and Bobby Thigpen, along with sports agent and former Bulldog manager Bo McKinnis.{{cite web |date=2008 |title=COACHES & STAFF |url=http://msstate_ftp.sidearmsports.com/pdf/bb/bb_08mg_coaches.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160820164502/http://msstate_ftp.sidearmsports.com/pdf/bb/bb_08mg_coaches.pdf |archive-date=20 August 2016 |access-date=15 June 2017 |website=Mississippi State Athletics }}

Rivalries

{{Main|Mississippi State–Ole Miss baseball rivalry}}

In baseball, MSU has two main rivals, LSU and Ole Miss.

Against LSU, the Bulldogs hold a 216–185 all-time series lead over LSU in a series that got its start in 1907.

Against Ole Miss, Mississippi State leads the series 259–208–5. Retired Mississippi State head baseball coach, Ron Polk, was 85–49 against Ole Miss. John Cohen, MSU's former coach, was 8–11 in SEC Conference games and 11–17 overall against Ole Miss. Andy Cannizaro was 4–0 against Ole Miss in 2017. Gary Henderson was 3–1 against Mississippi in 2018, while MSU's current coach Chris Lemonis has a 6–1 mark. The two teams play a 3-game series each year that counts in the SEC standings and one non-conference game in Jackson, MS. The game in Jackson was called the Mayor's Trophy from 1980 to 2006, and from 2007 to present the game has been called the Governor's Cup. The Mayor's Trophy series ended 14–13 in favor of the Rebels. With the 2007 season, the non-conference meeting between the two teams moved to Trustmark Park in Pearl, Mississippi – which is the home to the Mississippi Braves. Mississippi State holds the lead in the Governor's Cup 9–4.
