How to watch the MLB game tonight, on TV, on time

How to watch the MLB game tonight, on TV, on time

The Atlanta Braves take on the New York Yankees tonight on prime time television. This match will air on FOX at 6:15 p.m. CT. Fans can watch this MLB game for free online using the free trials offered by DirecTV Stream and Fubo TV.

The Braves have started the season well, but have recently had a rough three weeks. These poor performances allowed the Philadelphia Phillies to take control of first place in the National League East. However, Atlanta began to turn things around and moved within six games of first place in the division.

The Braves entered this series on a three-game winning streak and have won six of their last seven games. Their hot streak continued as they beat the Yankees 8-1 in the series opener last night. This winning streak is largely due to the incredible pitching from their bullpen. Atlanta allowed just two runs against the Detroit Tigers in a recent three-game series, allowing the Braves to sweep the series. Since Atlanta has regained some confidence, the team could win the series against the Yankees on prime time television tonight.

New York currently has one of the best records in MLB this year. However, the team has struggled in recent matches. The Yankees entered this series with a two-game losing streak, losing to the Baltimore Orioles. That downward trajectory continued last night with a blowout loss, so New York will look to bounce back tonight.

The Yankees have relied on star players Aaron Judge and Juan Soto this season, who have followed suit and performed well thus far. Both players have a batting average above .300, and Judge currently leads all MLB players in home runs and RBIs. He’s approaching 30 homers and 70 RBIs this season, so he’s on track for another great year offensively. If the two New York stars can find success tonight, they could even win this series before tomorrow’s finale.
