The Argentina national baseball team (Spanish: Selección de béisbol de Argentina) is the national baseball team of Argentina. The team represents Argentina in international competitions. They are nicknamed "The Gauchos."

The national team has won the South American Baseball Championship on 7 occasions, the last of which was held in Buenos Aires, in April 2018, after defeating Brazil 7 to 1 (their previous victories were in 1959, 2004, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2016).[2] Thanks to this victory, Argentina's baseball team qualified for the 2019 Pan American Games, the first time the team has ever qualified.

In 2022, Argentina participated for the first time in the 2023 World Baseball Classic qualification.[3]
