A Sunday Like No Other
NBCUniversal is set to present all 15 Major League Baseball games on a single Sunday, a milestone for a media company that has never before scheduled an entire day of baseball across its networks.
The action will begin with a pregame show at 11 a.m. on NBC and Peacock, followed by the "MLB Sunday Leadoff" matchup of Mets‑Braves at 11:30. From there, the schedule unfolds with games on NBC, NBC Sports Network and the streaming service Peacock, culminating in a "Sunday Night Baseball" doubleheader of Padres‑Dodgers at 6 p.m. on NBC.
Fans of the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox will need a Peacock subscription to watch their teams, as two games will air on NBC and three on NBC Sports Network, both of which will simulcast on Peacock. The remaining contests, including the White Sox‑Guardians game at 1 p.m. and the Cardinals‑Cubs game at 1:30, will be exclusive to Peacock.
A New Era of Viewing
Peacock will roll out a multiview feature that lets viewers watch up to four games simultaneously, with a curated four‑box view of the top contests and the ability to switch audio from any of the feeds. A catch‑up option will also surface key plays for those who miss the live action.
The broadcast crews are as varied as the schedule itself. The Cubs game will feature an all‑Cubs lineup of Alex Cohen, Mark Sweeney and Taylor McGregor, while the White Sox‑Guardians game pairs Guardians play‑by‑play voice Matt Underwood with Sox analyst Steve Stone and reporter Andre Knott on the field. Rob Hyland, NBC Sports’ senior vice president of production and coordinating producer, will oversee the entire "Star‑Spangled Sunday" production.
Even viewers who do not maintain a Peacock subscription can still follow every game, as YouTube TV has struck a deal with NBCUniversal to carry the broadcasts, ensuring that the entire slate remains accessible to a broad audience.
