The 2022 Arizona Wildcats baseball team represents the University of Arizona during the 2022 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Wildcats play their home games for the 11th season at Hi Corbett Field. The team is coached by Chip Hale in his 1st season at Arizona.[2][3] Previous head coach Jay Johnson - who had been with the program for 6 seasons - was hired during the offseason as the head coach at LSU, filling the vacancy left by the retirement of Paul Mainieri.[2]

Previous season[]

The Wildcats finished the 2021 season with a record of 45-18 (21-9 Conf.), making a run to the College World Series for the first time since 2016. They would eventually be eliminated in two games after losing consecutive games to Vanderbilt and Stanford.[4][5] For the first time since 2012 (when the Wildcats last won the College World Series), Hi Corbett Field was selected as both a NCAA postseason Regional and Super Regional site. The Wildcats also won their first Pac-12 Conference championship since the 2012 season, and their first outright conference championship since 1989.
