If the Philadelphia Phillies do indeed clinch their first NL East title since 2011 this weekend at Citi Field, there’s a good chance it will come with national announcers on the telecast.
Three of the four games between the Phillies and Mets this weekend will be national broadcasts.
Thursday’s series-opener between the two NL East rivals will be on FOX. Jason Benetti will be the play-by-play announcer, with Hall of Famer John Smoltz serving as the color commentator. Ken Rosenthal will be the dugout reporter.
Friday’s Mets-Phillies game will then be streamed exclusively on Apple TV+.
