The 2024 Texas A&M Aggies baseball team represented Texas A&M University in the 2024 NCAA Division I baseball season. The Aggies played their home games at Blue Bell Park.
Previous season
The Aggies finished 38–27, 14–16 in the SEC to finish in 5th place in the West.
Stadium upgrades and renovations
Demand for Aggie baseball season tickets has greatly outweighed availability. Texas A&M set a new post-2012 renovation attendance record of 8,075 on April 13, 2024, against the Vanderbilt Commodores and the combined attendance of 22,809 during the series against the Georgia Bulldogs was the second-largest crowd since the stadium opened in 1978. To address the high demand and record crowds, Texas A&M expanded the outfield seating known as "Section 12" by adding an additional 250 seats to left-center field. The Aggies concluded the 2024 regular season with an average home game attendance of 6,271, which ranked 7th nationally and exceeds the stated Blue Bell Park capacity.
In May 2024, the Texas A&M University System Board of Regents approved a proposal to spend $80 million to renovate Blue Bell Park and expand seating. The proposed renovation would begin between September 2025 and August 2026. Discussions from November 2022 about a proposed renovation indicated the project would include new reserved seating plus renovations to concourses, restrooms, food service areas, and current premium club areas, as well as spaces used by the team such as the locker room, hitting and pitching facilities, weight room, meeting rooms, bullpens, and coaches’ offices.
