* FS1 returns for a 10th straight season of covering Major League Baseball
FOX Sports announced their 2023 Major League Baseball regular season schedule on Thursday. That means we now have the schedule for the MLB on FS1.
FOX Sports 1 (FS1) is ready to swing the fences as that station prepares for their 10th season of carrying Major League Baseball games alongside the FOX broadcast network.
FS1's schedule will start on Saturday, April 1 at 9:30 PM (ET) as the Cleveland Guardians visit the Seattle Mariners. FS1 will mainly carry games on Saturday afternoons, with select weekday broadcasts mixed in.
You can look at the complete 2023 MLB on FS1 schedule below, with FOX's schedule also attached. Announcers will be added throughout the season as well.
As a side note, all commentators assigned to FS1 broadcasts are calling games remotely. This format has existed since 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with one exception in 2021.

ReplyDelete@Mark T. Thank you very much!
DeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteWhat's on deck for this week's MLB national TV broadcasts, as July concludes and August begins (subject to change):
ReplyDelete. TB/NYY (Tuesday, TBS)
. HOU/NYY (Thursday, FOX regional)
. PIT/MIL (Thursday, FOX regional)

Items of Note:
- No "MLB on FOX" games this Saturday due to Women's World Cup action. Instead, FS1 will air two games: Toronto at Boston, 4 p.m. ET and LA Dodgers at San Diego, 8:30 p.m. ET
- Trying something new for the "lead" of my weekly MLB summaries.
As always, I appreciate your help with the announcing assignments.
Blue Jays vs Red Sox- Kevin Kugler and Eric Karros
ReplyDelete@Mark T. Thank you, Mark. And of course, Kevin Kugler and Eric Karros DOUBLED up on a day that FS1 had TWO games. Very stupid. If I was running FOX, I would have TWO separate crews calling doubleheaders (you can still call games remotely, but come on?!). Is that TOO MUCH TO ASK?
DeleteThey should use the booth inside the stadium. That way, it definitely won't be the same crew twice.
DeleteThe week ahead in MLB (subject to change):
ReplyDelete. HOU/BAL (Tuesday, TBS)
. LAA/HOU (Saturday, FOX regional)
. MIL/CWS (Saturday, FOX regional)

. ATL/NYM (Sunday, ESPN/ESPN2) - Karl Ravech/Eduardo PĆ©rez/David Cone//Buster Olney (ESPN); Michael Kay/Alex Rodriguez ("KayRod Cast", ESPN2) (confirmed)
Tamir, do you think FS1 will find a game to replace PIT-KC on August 28?
ReplyDelete@Mark T. Yeah, Mark, I think that FS1 should replace the Pirates/Royals game on Monday, August 28 with the Brewers/Cubs game (both teams are above .500 and fighting for the NL Central title).
DeleteThat'd be a good match-up to have.

Because Ken Rosenthal didn't call a Thursday game, will he call a Saturday game?
ReplyDelete@Mark T. Probably. We will see tho.

DeleteWho's calling Red Sox at Yankees and Brewers at Rangers 8-19 is tomorrow?
ReplyDelete@jtcramerdog@gmail.com Not sure yet, but FS1 will be using two different sets of commentators since it is a straight doubleheader and not a day/night doubleheader or something.
DeleteOk thanks
DeleteKenny Albert and Tom Verducci were on the call for the Red Sox vs Yankees game.

ReplyDelete@Mark T. Thank you mane!
DeleteI got you, Tamir!
DeleteI saw no more weekly games now because of College Football I'm assuming
ReplyDelete@jtcramerdog@gmail.com Man, that is one of the main reasons. FS1 will be airing several MLB games during the month of September (for example, BAL/LAA on Labor Day and SEA/TB on Saturday, September 9 at 4 p.m. ET). Remember, FS1 aired THREE (!) MLB games last week, so maybe FS1 wanted a little mini-vacation from baseball before the stretch run/postseason begin.
DeleteThe week ahead, as we look forward to September baseball (!!) by the end of the week:
ReplyDelete. MIL/CHC (Tuesday, TBS)
. PHI/MIL (Saturday, FOX regional)
. MIN/TEX (Saturday, FOX regional)
. NYY/HOU (Sunday, ESPN) - Karl Ravech, Eduardo PĆ©rez, David Cone, Buster Olney (confirmed)
- NOTE: A shortened national television schedule this week, due to FS1 having no MLB scheduled.
Will FOX broadcast any ALDS games this year, or will FS1 do them all?
ReplyDelete@Mark T. I think FOX will air select ALDS games, but FS1 will air the majority of the matchups. Last season, FOX aired two Phillies/Braves NLDS games.
DeleteAnd I remember the second Phillies-Braves game went into a delay, which interfered with FOX'S TV schedule.
DeleteWhat's the national tv schedule for this week?
ReplyDeleteThe week ahead in terms of MLB national TV broadcasts, as we are now officially into the postseason push:
ReplyDelete. BAL/LAA (Monday, FS1) - Alex Faust, Tom Verducci (confirmed)
. SF/CHC (Tuesday, TBS)
. SEA/TB (Saturday, FS1)
. COL/SF (Sunday, ESPN) - Karl Ravech, Eduardo PĆ©rez, David Cone, Buster Olney (confirmed)
Once again, a light MLB national television schedule this week due to FOX airing CFB all day Saturday, thus preventing from any MLB games at all.
Wonder who FS1 will pick to call tomorrow's game with most of the announcers calling the NFL and Benetti and Faust calling college football.
ReplyDeleteKen Rosenthal is calling the Mariners vs Rays game from St. Pete.
ReplyDeleteAlong with Alex Faust and Tom Verducci (I thought Faust was doing CFB.....)
Delete@Mark T. Yeah, Alex is still doing CFB tonight. Since Faust calls CFB games remotely from Los Angeles, he could pull off double duty since the MLB on FS1 still (unbelievably) does games remotely.
DeleteHmm. Was Ken Rosenthal still doing games from on site?
Delete@Mark T. Mark, I'm so sorry. Rosenthal was on-site in Tampa. Faust & Verducci were remote.
DeleteThe upcoming week's MLB national television schedule (subject to change):
ReplyDelete. MIN/CIN (Monday, FS1)
. PHI/ATL (Tuesday, TBS)
. NYM/MIA (Wednesday, FS1)
. BAL/CLE (Thursday, FOX regional)
. NYM/PHI (Thursday, FOX regional)
. SF/LAD (Sunday, ESPN/ESPN2) - Karl Ravech, Eduardo PĆ©rez, David Cone, Buster Olney (ESPN) (confirmed); Michael Kay, Alex Rodriguez ("KayRod Cast", ESPN2) (confirmed)
