The Buffalo Bulls baseball team is a varsity intercollegiate athletic team of the University at Buffalo in Amherst, New York, United States. The team is a member of the Mid-American Conference East division, which is part of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) at the Division I level. The team plays its home games at Amherst Audubon Field in Amherst, New York. The Bulls are coached by Ron Torgalski. At the conclusion of the 2017 season, the program will be eliminated by the university as a cost-saving move, along with men's soccer, men's swimming and diving, and women's rowing.
The year 1949 is considered the official inaugural season of UB varsity baseball. But baseball’s start at UB goes back much further. There are newspaper accounts of a UB team from as early as 1894. From 1914–1917, several good UB teams took to the diamond playing some of the best teams in the country including Pitt, Army, Michigan State and Syracuse.
