I can't find an official document for baseball/softball but the Italian Federation has just published an article with all details, saying it is now approved by IOC: http://www.fibs.it/it/news/nazionali-baseball/43221-tokyo-2020,-il-sistema-di-qualificazione.html

Summary:

Softball

Japan

World Champs (August 2018) - 1 team

American Qualification Tournament - 2 teams

Asian/Oceanian QT - 1 team

European/African QT - 1 team

Baseball

Japan

Premier 12 in November 2019 - best team from America and best team from Asia/Oceania

American QT - 1 team

European/African QT - 1 team

Final QT - 1 team

 

So basically 2 American teams? that will be very tough, between USA, Cuba, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico (i know that it wont be MLB players, but still have talent)

Don't forget Canada... 2 time defending Pan American Games champion in what will likely be similar team compositions for these qualifying events.

A third American team can qualify through the Final QT, which will consist of 6 teams:

- 2 from America (2nd and 3rd placed at American QT);

- 1 from Europe (2nd placed at European QT)

- 2 from Asia and 1 from Oceania (selected through their continental championships).

FINA by laws have quite a bit about the qualification. It's not the official qualification documents, but it does tell a lot.

So two more teams and 2 less duets in artistic swimming.
