FOX Sports' coverage of the 2024 MLB season continues with regional action on Saturday, May 11, as Baseball Night in America returns for the second straight week.
Game coverage begins at 7:00 PM ET with a mini pregame program, followed by the first pitch at around 7:15 PM ET. FOX is regionalizing two matchups for broadcast in front of a national audience this weekend.
Baseball Night in America on FOX this week immediately follows the Braves at Mets game on FS1 (4:00 PM ET start, with Kevin Kugler & Tom Verducci on the call).
Most of the country will see a National League Central rivalry from American Family Field in Milwaukee as Paul Goldschmidt and the St. Louis Cardinals visit Rhys Hoskins and the Milwaukee Brewers. Saturday's FOX game is the third game of the four-game weekend series between the longtime divisional foes. Currently (as of Friday, May 10), Milwaukee is in first place in the National League Central with a 22-15 record while St. Louis ranks last in the five-team division with a 15-22 record. Brewers catcher William Contreras is currently #6 in MLB in terms of batting average (.340) (as of Friday, May 10). 🎤 Seasoned play-by-play commentator Adam Amin, Hall of Famer John Smoltz & reporter Ken Rosenthal will provide commentary.
Other viewers (that are not scheduled to receive the Cardinals-Brewers game) will watch a National League matchup as Elly De La Cruz and the Cincinnati Reds travel to the San Francisco Bay Area to meet up with Nick Ahmed and the San Francisco Giants. The Reds are tailspinning as of late, losers of their last eight games as of Friday, May 10. Meanwhile, San Francisco trails the first place Dodgers by nine games in the National League West, so this series is a huge one for them in terms of climbing back into the division hunt. 🎙 Jason Benetti handles play-by-play duties, with analysis furnished by 14-year MLB veteran and 1992 Rookie of the Year Eric Karros.
