Apple today announced that its weekly MLB doubleheader “Friday Night Baseball” returns in April. While the games were free to watch last season, an Apple TV+ subscription is now required, with U.S. pricing set at $6.99 per month or $69 per year.

“Friday Night Baseball” will include two live MLB games each Friday throughout the 2023 regular season. The games will be available to stream in 60 countries and regions, up from 13 last season, with no local broadcast restrictions. The action will begin on Friday, April 7, with the Chicago Cubs facing the Texas Rangers at 2 p.m. Eastern Time and the Atlanta Braves taking on the San Diego Padres at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.

In the U.S., DirecTV will make “Friday Night Baseball” games available to more than 300,000 restaurants, bars, hotel lounges, retail stores, and other venues throughout the regular season on existing satellite TV equipment, according to Apple.

Apple and the MLB shared the “Friday Night Baseball” schedule for the first half of the season, through June 30. Each game will feature “state-of-the-art cameras to present vivid live-action shots,” along with live pre-game and post-game coverage.
