MLB announces game times for Division Series
Division Series games begin on Thursday.
Major League Baseball on Monday announced the start times for the first few days of the four Division Series, which get underway on Thursday.
The National League Division is up first with a pair of games on Thursday, starting with the Milwaukee Brewers hosting the NL Wild Card winner (5:07 p.m. ET, FS1), followed in primetime by the Atlanta Braves at the Los Angeles Dodgers (8:37 p.m., MLB Network).
The American League Division Series open Friday, which gives us at least one day of wall-to-wall action with four scheduled games. The Cleveland Indians will visit the Houston Astros in the first AL game on Friday (2:05 p.m., TBS), with the Boston Red Sox hosting either the New York Yankees or Oakland Athletics in the third game of the day (7:32 p.m., TBS).
The Yankees and A’s play the American League Wild Card Game Wednesday night in New York (8 p.m., TBS), while the NL Wild Card Game will be at Wrigley Field on Tuesday night (8 p.m., ESPN), with the Chicago Cubs hosting the Colorado Rockies.
