Kinheim's top baseball team plays in the Honkbal Hoofdklasse, the top level of professional baseball in the Netherlands.

The club's most successful period was in the 1990s, when it reached the Holland Series in five consecutive seasons from 1992 to 1996. The team lost four of its national championships but became Dutch champions in 1994, beating Neptunus 3–2 in a five-game series.

In 2006, Kinheim won the Hoofdklasse and the national cup trophy, the KNBSB-Beker. After beating HCAW in the playoffs to qualify for the 2006 Holland Series, Kinheim won the series 3–2 against the Pioniers of Hoofddorp.

Kinheim abruptly withdrew from the Hoofdklasse at the end of 2016, citing a lack of players for the top Dutch league. The club qualified for the promotion/relegation playoffs in 2018 and 2019 but lost both years and could not return to the Hoofdklasse.[[File:Honkbal Amstel Tijgers tegen Wera Kinheim team van Wera Kinheim, Bestanddeelnr 929-8382.jpg|alt=Wera Kinheim players in 1978|thumb|Wera Kinheim players in 1978]]From 2020 to 2024, Kinheim fielded a combined team with fellow Haarlem club DSS, DSS/Kinheim. In 2019, DSS defeated Kinheim in the relegation playoff, but DSS could not participate in the league due to financial difficulties. The partnership allowed the combined clubs to continue fielding a team from Haarlem in the Hoofdklasse. In August 2024, the two clubs announced their partnership would end, with Kinheim staying in the Hoofdklasse in 2025 and DSS competing in the lower Eerste Klasse. On 16 October 2024, Kinheim announced Milan Lammerts would coach the team in 2025. He had played for DSS/Kinheim in 2021 and 2022. Kinheim lost in the wildcard playoff in its first season back in the Hoofdklasse.
