Baseball Advance is a baseball game produced by Sega, developed by Smilebit and published by THQ for the Game Boy Advance. It was later released in Japan as Greatest Nine with different licenses.

Despite Baseball Advance having ties to the Greatest Nine series, the Baseball Advance logo looks more like the logo used for Sega's World Series Baseball series.
