Baseball Night in America: Dodgers vs. Brewers or Cardinals vs. Cardinals — Saturday, 7:00 PM ET on Fox:
Baseball Night in America, Fox Sports’ signature weekly MLB primetime series, presents regional Saturday night coverage on Saturday, May 23, beginning at 7:00 PM ET on Fox.

Two-time NL MVP Shohei Ohtani and the two-time reigning MLB champion Los Angeles Dodgers clash with Brice Turang and the Milwaukee Brewers in National League action on Saturday, May 23, at 7:00 PM ET (6:00 PM CT local) on Fox.
Things have been bumpy for the defending two-time champion Dodgers. Los Angeles has split its last 10 regular-season games, going 5-5. After sweeping the Angels in the “Freeway Series,” the Dodgers dropped the series opener to the Padres (their division rival) 1-0 on Monday night. Padres DH Miguel Andujar took Dodgers starter Yoshinobu Yamamoto deep in the first inning, and it proved to be the difference. The Brewers, on the other hand, are starting to heat up, with eight wins in their last 10 games. That has brought Milwaukee closer to the division-leading Cubs, as the Brewers trail by only half a game in the NL Central. Brewers DH Christian Yelich scored twice, knocked in two runs, and collected two hits in Milwaukee’s 9-3 win over the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Monday night.
Longtime rivals from the National League Central compete against each other on the field as Elly De La Cruz and the Cincinnati Reds host Masyn Winn and the visiting St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday, May 23, at 7:00 PM ET on Fox.
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol and his team kick off a vital 12-game stretch against division opponents, beginning with a midweek series against the Pirates and this weekend’s series against the Reds. St. Louis has gone 4-0 against the NL Central in 2026, including a four-game sweep of the Pirates at the end of April. On Saturday night, St. Louis gets its first crack at the Reds, a team that made the postseason last year. The Reds are struggling mightily after an impressive 20-11 record through the end of April. Terry Francona’s team has posted an abysmal 4-13 record in May, including eight consecutive losses to start the month.
