The 2015 Louisville Cardinals baseball team represents the University of Louisville during the 2015 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Cardinals play their home games at Jim Patterson Stadium as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. They will are led by head coach Dan McDonnell, in his ninth year at Louisville.

In 2014, the Cardinals finished as champions of the American Athletic Conference with a record of 48–15, 19–5 in conference play, in their first and only season in the conference. They qualified for the 2014 American Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament, and lost in the finals to Houston. They qualified for the 2014 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament, and were selected as hosts of the Louisville regional, along with rival Kentucky, Kansas, and Kent State. The Cardinals rolled to three quick wins to win the Louisville Regional and advance to the Super Regional (of which they were hosts) by defeating Kent State 5–0, Kansas 6–3, and Kentucky 4–1. In the Super Regional, Louisville faced off against Kennesaw State, who had won the Tallahassee Regional in their first ever NCAA Tournament appearance. The Cardinals quickly ended any hopes of a further Cinderella run by defeating the Owls, 5–3 and 7–4, which qualified them for the College World Series.

In the College World Series, Louisville first faced off against Vanderbilt, and lost 3–5 to the eventual national champions. In the Cardinals' second game, they faced Texas, and lost 1–4, leading to their elimination from the College World Series.
