History

While Fox has aired Fox Saturday Baseball games since 1996, Fox only began using the Baseball Night in America branding in 2012.[1] In the inaugural season, the Baseball Night in America branding was used for games from May 19 to July 7.[2]

Until 2021, Baseball Night in America aired every Saturday from the last week in May to the second week in July. Beginning with the 2019 season, late season Fox Saturday Baseball games moved from the afternoon to prime time. therefore a separate section of games was added for September. Some of these September games aired on Thursday night as Thursday Night Baseball.[3]

For the first time since 2020, during the 2023 season, Fox also aired afternoon Fox Saturday Baseball games on April 1, 22, and 29 and June 24.[4]

For the 2025 season, Fox will air Baseball Night in America games on March 29 and every Saturday in primetime from May 3 to August 16, as well as on August 30, September 6 and 27. The August 2 game will be the MLB Speedway Classic at Bristol Motor Speedway and will be the only Fox Baseball Night in America window to not feature at least a second game. Games will also air in primetime on Thursday nights on August 21, September 11 and 18. Fox will also air Fox Saturday Baseball afternoon games on April 19 and 26 and the MLB Tokyo Series at 6:00 a.m. eastern time on Tuesday, March 18.[5]
