The 1917 Birmingham Barons were the 7th Birmingham Barons team to play at Rickwood Field, built by owner Rick Woodward. The 1917 Barons finished 3rd in the Southern Association with a record of 87-66. They were managed by Carleton Molesworth.

The 1917 season was notable for three no-hitters thrown by three different Barons pitchers at home (Ralph Comstock, Carment Hill and Ray Milligan). A Little Rock Travelers pitcher also recorded a no-hitter at Rickwood that year.
