Apple TV+ ‘Friday Night Baseball’ August schedule goes live as pricing strategy continues

Apple, in collaboration with Major League Baseball (MLB), has announced the Friday Night Baseball schedule for August. Games are still available for free, exclusively on Apple TV+. According to a company press release, game assignments for broadcasters are going to be announced weekly.

Live pre- and postgame coverage will still be hosted by Lauren Gardner. Additionally, Gardner will be joined by a rotating group of analysts and former MLB players Carlos Peña, Cliff Floyd, and Yonder Alonso. Former MLB umpire Brian Gorman is set to still offer the rules analysis and interpretation.

Fans can also find additional content through new programs through the Apple TV app. Exclusive to Apple, Countdown to First Pitch will preview the week’s matchups, and MLB Daily Recap will summarize previous content.

Also, within the Apple News app, fans can follow teams and watch personalized highlights from games. On Fridays, they can watch Friday Night Baseball along with highlights and stories from the MLB.
