The 2026 Oregon Ducks baseball team represented the University of Oregon in the 2026 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Ducks played their home games at PK Park in Eugene, Oregon and were members of the Big Ten Conference in their second season, after spending the last 59 years in the Pac-12 Conference. The team was coached by Mark Wasikowski in his 7th season at Oregon.

Previous season

The Ducks ended the 2025 season with a record of 22–8 in conference play and 42–16 overall record, resulting in being the Big Ten Conference regular season co-champions with UCLA. They would play in the Big Ten tournament as the #1 Seed on Pool A in Game 1 they would win again Michigan State and then in Game 2 would lose against the #8 seed Nebraska, causing them to be eliminated from the tournament.^[2] They would be invited to play in the 2025 NCAA Division I baseball tournament, where they were given the national overall seed of 12, allowing to host the Eugene Regional. There they would have a disappointing NCAA tournament campaign, going 0–2 losing to #4 Seed Utah Valley in the opening game, before being eliminated by #3 Seed Cal Poly in the elimination game.^[3]

At the conclusion of the season, head coach, Mark Wasikowski, was named the Big Ten Conference Baseball Coach of the Year.^[4] Five Oregon players were named to the All-Big Ten first-team: Ryan Cooney, Grayson Grinsell, Seth Mattox, Mason Neville, and Jacob Walsh.^[5] Four Oregon players were named to the All-Big Ten third-team: Anson Aroz, Maddox Maloney, Dominic Hellman, and Jason Reitz.^[5] Finally, Burke-Lee Mabeus was named to the All-Freshman team.^[5]
