The team has a long history of league and postseason success and has produced several players who went on to Major League Baseball, including Rick Monday, Tim Leary and Tyler Skaggs. As of the 2026 season, the varsity team is coached by Jordan Sigman.

Samohi baseball has enjoyed several notable eras. The 1976 team won the Bay League championship behind players including future major-league pitcher Tim Leary, while the 1987 Vikings finished the regular season 20–5, then the best record in school history, and won the Ocean League. In 2007, Santa Monica reached the CIF Southern Section championship game for the first time since 1973, losing to Charter Oak at Dodger Stadium. The program returned to a CIF final in 2024, when the Vikings entered the Division 5 playoffs as the No. 1-ranked team, defeated Nogales, Ganesha, Adelanto and Pacifica/Oxnard, and advanced to the championship game before falling 4–1 to Chino Hill.
