The 2013 Mountain West Conference Baseball Tournament took place from May 22–26. All six of the league's teams met in the double-elimination tournament held at California State University, Fresno's Pete Beiden Field.

San Diego State won the tournament for the second time, earning the Mountain West Conference's automatic bid to the 2013 NCAA Division I Baseball Tournament.

Format and seeding

The conference's six teams were seeded based on winning percentage during the round robin regular season schedule. The top two seeds received a bye to the second round, with the top seed playing the lowest seeded team that won its first round game, and the second seeded team playing the higher seeded first day winner. The losers of the first day's games played an elimination game in the double-elimination format.
