The 2004 America East Conference baseball tournament took place from May 27 through 29 at Mahaney Diamond in Orono, Maine.

In the championship game, fourth-seeded Stony Brook defeated second-seeded Maine, 3–1, to win its first tournament championship. As a result, Stony Brook received the America East's automatic bid to the 2004 NCAA tournament, the program's first in Division I.
