2014 MLB on Fox Schedule

Major League Baseball on Fox has returned for its 19th season, but will see a shorter season than what we have been used to in the past. Their coverage will kick off in mid-May until the All-Star Game, then will not return until September and the run to the postseason. With the new television contract, Fox Sports 1 will be carrying a number of games this season on Saturdays, including in doubleheaders with the Fox game. It represents a significant shift in the baseball TV landscape with less games on broadcast TV.

And some more big news is that the new lead Fox broadcast crew will be Joe Buck, Harold Reynolds and Tom Verducci in the wake of Tim McCarver's retirement. McCarver was the first and to this point only lead commentator Fox had from their debut in 1996.

So without further ado, the MLB on Fox schedule for 2014, along with announcers added all season long.

2014 MLB on Fox Sports 1 Schedule



One of the big positives when Fox announced 
the new Fox Sports 1 that would help the network in its early days was that it gained the rights to MLB games with the new TV contract signed in September 2012. Now we have the first MLB schedule for Fox Sports 1, predominantly on Saturdays but with also games on some Tuesdays and Thursdays. FS1 will also have a nightly baseball highlights show called MLB Whiparound at 10 EST. 

And some more big news is that the new lead Fox broadcast crew will be Joe Buck, Harold Reynolds and Tom Verducci, replacing Buck and Tim McCarver.   

Here's the 2014 FS1 MLB schedule, with announcers to be filled in all season long.
