The 2015 Memphis Tigers baseball team represents the University of Memphis during the 2015 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Tigers play their home games at FedExPark as a member of the American Athletic Conference. They are led by head coach Daron Schoenrock, in his tenth season at Memphis.
In 2014, the Tigers finished the season 8th in the American Athletic Conference with a record of 30–29, 8–16 in conference play. They qualified for the 2014 American Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament, but failed to qualify for the 2014 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.
The Tigers opened their season on February 13 against Oral Roberts on the road in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Over the three game series, the Tigers went 1–2, losing the first two games before rebounding to win the third game of their season, 6–1. A series of weather-related cancellations changed Memphis' schedule over the next week. A tournament in Conway, Arkansas, with Eastern Illinois and host Central Arkansas was shortened, and the Tigers only played one game, a 5–2 win over Central Arkansas. The Tigers' home opener against Mississippi Valley State was then pushed back until the end of April.
To end the month of February (and open March), the Tigers hosted Saint Louis, the three time defending Atlantic 10 regular season champions. The series opened with a doubleheader, in which Memphis won the first game in ten innings after a walk-off home run by Tucker Tubbs, while Saint Louis won the second game. In the third and final game of the series, Memphis won 5–2 in a game that was shortened to seven innings due to rain.
