Diamondbacks vs. Phillies — Saturday 1:00 PM ET on FS1
Fox Sports' Major League Baseball game schedule for this weekend kicks off on Saturday, April 11, over on FS1.
2025 National League Silver Slugger award winner Geraldo Perdomo and the Arizona Diamondbacks (5-6) participate in a pivotal early-season National League game against rookie sensation Justin Crawford and the Philadelphia Phillies (6-5) on Saturday, April 11, at 1:00 PM ET on FS1, live from Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Currently, the Diamondbacks are playing Francisco Lindor and the New York Mets in a three-game series from Citi Field. This marks the first stop of a nine-game, three-city East Coast swing for Corbin Carroll and the D-Backs. Unfortunately, the series got off to a bad start for Arizona, losing Tuesday's series opener to the Mets, 4-3, in 10 innings, thanks to Ronny Mauricio's game-winning base hit to drive in Francisco Lindor for the game-winning run.
As for Philadelphia, they are wrapping up their six-game early-season road tour through Denver and San Francisco. Through the first five games, Philadelphia has racked up a 3-2 record (2-1 vs. Colorado, 1-1 vs. San Francisco), with the series finale against the Giants scheduled for Wednesday, April 9, at 3:45 PM ET (12:45 PM ET local in San Francisco). On Tuesday night, the Phillies were blanked 6-0 as they failed to score a single run. Phillies DH Kyle Schwarber has three long balls after 11 contests, as Schwarbs tries to pick up right where he left off in 2025.
"Baseball Night in America": Red Sox vs. Cardinals or Giants vs. Orioles — Saturday 7:00 PM ET on Fox
"Baseball Night in America," Fox's flagship weekly Major League Baseball program, returns to the airwaves on Saturday, April 11, featuring two regional matchups starting at 7:00 PM ET on the Fox broadcast network. This week, viewers can anticipate the Boston Red Sox competing against the St. Louis Cardinals, or the San Francisco Giants facing off against the Baltimore Orioles. To find out which matchup your local Fox station will be broadcasting on Saturday night, please refer to the listings at the bottom of this article or check your local listings.
The St. Louis Cardinals, who hold the second most World Series championships with 11 titles, and the Boston Red Sox, who rank third with 9 titles, will face off in a highly anticipated matchup from Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri. Masyn Winn and the St. Louis Cardinals (6-5) will host Ceddanne Rafaela and the Boston Red Sox (3-8) on Saturday, April 11, at 7:00 PM ET, airing on Fox.
Recently, the Red Sox achieved a narrow victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, winning 3-2 on Tuesday night at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts. In that game, shortstop Trevor Story contributed significantly by driving in two of Boston's three runs. Additionally, Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman secured his third save of the season. However, this win has been one of the few successes for the Red Sox this year. As of April 8, the Red Sox hold the worst record in the American League, languishing with a disappointing 3-8 record.
As for the Cardinals, they are winding down a six-game road trip through Detroit and Washington DC. On Tuesday night, the Cardinals defeated the Nationals, 7-6, in 10 innings. One of the highlights from this game is that Cardinals right fielder Jordan Walker hit his third home run in a four-game stretch, which could be a preview of the type of season that Walker might have at the plate. The Cardinals trail the Reds (8-3) and Brewers (8-3) for first place in the National League Central division.
Luis Arraez and the San Francisco Giants (4-8) head to Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland to play Gunnar Henderson and the Baltimore Orioles (5-6) on Saturday, April 11, at 7:00 PM ET on Fox.
The Giants are playing the second portion of their six-game homestand following a weekend series against the Mets, with San Francisco getting swept in the weekend set. In the Giants' most recent contest, they were able to pummel the visiting Philadelphia Phillies, 6-0 on Tuesday night, behind an outstanding performance from pitcher Robbie Ray. Giants catcher Daniel Susac had a busy evening, getting three hits on the night to aid San Francisco's cause even more. The Giants sit in last place in the National League West with a 4-8 record.
The Orioles are on a winning streak, my friends! As of April 8, the Orioles have won two straight as they get closer to the .500 mark on this young baseball season. This revamped Baltimore ball club is fresh off Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Chicago White Sox in Chicago. Baltimore's effort was led by designated hitter Gunnar Henderson, who smacked a two-home run in the eighth inning to provide the Orioles with a 4-2 lead, which turned out to be the final score of the game. The Orioles find themselves tied for second place in the AL East, alongside Junior Caminero and the Tampa Bay Rays, who also happen to be 5-6 at this stage of the season.
