The 2015 West Virginia Mountaineers baseball team will represent West Virginia University during the 2015 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Mountaineers will play their home games at the newly constructed Monongalia County Ballpark as a member of the Big 12 Conference. They will be led by head coach Randy Mazey, in his 3rd season at West Virginia.
In 2014, the Mountaineers finished the season 6th in the Big 12 with a record of 28–26, 9–14 in conference play. They qualified for the 2014 Big 12 Conference Baseball Tournament and were eliminated in the second round. They failed to qualify for the 2014 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.
In June 2013, the West Virginia University Board of Governors approved a deal that would allow the baseball program to build a new stadium near the university's location of Morgantown. Ground broke on October 17, 2013, at the University Town Centre in nearby Granville. The first game at the venue is scheduled for March 17 against Waynesburg. After the college baseball season is over, the ballpark will be used by the West Virginia Black Bears, a Class A short-season affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Black Bears relocated from Jamestown, New York after the 2014 season.
West Virginia opened their season with a three-game series against Clemson on the road at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. In game one of the series, freshman B. J. Myers (five innings) and junior Blake Smith (four innings) combined to shutout the Tigers, 2–0.
