The 2025 International League season (IL) was the 112th season of the International League. It began on March 28, 2025 with a game between the Memphis Redbirds and Louisville Bats at Louisville Slugger Field in Louisville, Kentucky. The season ended on September 21, 2025. As with all seasons since 2021, no Triple-A All-Star Game is planned.

The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp defeated the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, 2 games to 1, to win the International League championship, their first since 1968.[1] They went on to defeat the Las Vegas Aviators, 8–7, in the 2025 Triple-A Baseball National Championship Game at Las Vegas Ballpark in Las Vegas, Nevada.[2]

The Automated Ball-Strike System ABS challenge system is currently being tested across Minor League Baseball, including the International League.[3]
