TNT Sports announced the first half of the 2025 MLB Tuesday regular season schedule back in January, with coverage starting on April 1, 2025.
The first half of the MLB Tuesday 26-game schedule consists of a 12-week slate featuring divisional rivalries, international superstars and perennial postseason contenders across 13 matchups on TBS and Max.
MLB Tuesday will begin its coverage on Tuesday, April 1, with a matchup of the two most recent World Series runners-up: unanimous 2024 AL MVP Aaron Judge and the reigning American League Champion New York Yankees will host 2024 NL All-Star Ketel Marte and the Arizona Diamondbacks at 7 p.m. ET.
Play-by-play announcer Alex Faust and game analyst Jeff Francoeur will deliver commentary from Yankee Stadium in The Bronx. Brian Anderson will also serve as MLB Tuesday play-by-play announcer throughout the season.
TBS’ 30-minute pregame studio show, MLB Leadoff, will set the stage before each game with host Lauren Shehadi and analysis from Hall of Famer Pedro Martinez, 2007 NL MVP Jimmy Rollins and three-time All-Star Curtis Granderson. The studio crew will also anchor MLB Closer, the 30-minute postgame show, from TNT Sports’ Atlanta studios.
TNT Sports will have around-the-clock coverage of the 2025 MLB season across B/R Walk-Off and Bleacher Report social and digital platforms, highlighted by the following season-long features:
- On Base with Mookie Betts: The LA Dodgers superstar returns for another season of in-depth, personal interviews with MLB stars. Catch new episodes live on the B/R app, and on demand wherever you get your podcasts.
- Jon Heyman Weekly Insider: MLB reporter Jon Heyman provides a rundown of storylines, reactions and rumors every Wednesday, live in the B/R app.
- On Deck Correspondent: B/R documents the experience of celebrities sitting front-row at key MLB games throughout the season.
From April through June, each of the five most-recent winners of the National League pennant will appear on MLB Tuesday. In October, TBS will conclude its 52nd year of baseball by providing exclusive coverage of the 2025 National League Division Series and National League Championship Series.
First half highlights include:
- Four-time All-Star and prized offseason acquisition Juan Soto will lead the New York Mets in an NL-leading four MLB Tuesday first-half appearances, including division tilts at home against two-time NL MVP Bryce Harper and the Philadelphia Phillies (April 22); and against the Atlanta Braves, awaiting the return of 2023 NL MVP Ronald Acuña Jr. (June 24)
- 2024 ALCS MVP Giancarlo Stanton will lead the Yankees in an AL-best four MLB Tuesday first-half appearances, including a rematch of the 2024 ALCS against 2024 AL All-Star starter Steven Kwan and the Cleveland Guardians on June 3 in the Bronx;
Harper and the Phillies appear in two additional divisional contests — both against the Braves — on April 8 in Atlanta and in Philadelphia on May 27. - The defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers and their MVP-level triumvirate of Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts will make their MLB Tuesday season debut on June 3 when they host the Mets, in a match-up of NL heavyweight clubs, followed by a matchup on June 17 against the San Diego Padres with All-Star position players Fernando Tatis Jr., Jackson Merrill and Luis Arraez.
- The Boston Red Sox will look to get back into postseason contention this season — adding star hurlers Garrett Crochet and Walker Buehler in the offseason — with back-to-back weeks of featured games on TBS and Max: at the Detroit Tigers, with AL Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal, on May 13; and hosting the Mets on May 20.
- The Guardians will travel to Oriole Park at Camden Yards to face the Baltimore Orioles on April 15, in an early season marquee contest featuring Jose Ramirez and Gunnar Henderson, both finishing top five in 2024 AL MVP voting.
