The 2020 American Athletic Conference Baseball Tournament will be held at Spectrum Field in Clearwater, Florida from May 19 through May 24. The event, held at the end of the conference regular season, determines the champion of the American Athletic Conference for the 2018 season. The winner of the double-elimination tournament will receive the conference's automatic bid to the 2020 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.[2]

The Tournament has been held since 2014, the first year of the rebranding as the American Athletic Conference. Since then, Houston and East Carolina have each won the event twice, while Cincinnati and UConn have each won once.

Format and seeding

The top eight baseball teams in The American will be seeded based on their records in conference play. The tournament will use a two bracket double-elimination format, leading to a single championship game between the winners of each bracket.
