The 2017 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament began on Thursday, June 1, 2017 as part of the 2017 NCAA Division I baseball season. The 64-team, double-elimination tournament will conclude with the 2017 College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, starting on June 17 and ending by June 28.
The 64 participating NCAA Division I college baseball teams will be selected out of an eligible 299 teams. Thirty-one teams will be awarded an automatic bid as champions of their conferences, and 33 teams will be selected at-large by the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee.
Teams will be divided into sixteen regionals of four teams, which will conduct a double-elimination tournament. Regional champions will then face each other in Super Regionals, a best-of-three-game series, to determine the eight participants in the College World Series.
