MLB This week: Early games every day

by Matt Smith

We have a bumper week of early-game action to go alongside the Tuesday night #MLBBattlegrounds event in Hyde Park.

There are MLB games to watch live during the British evening every day this working week.  BT Sport/ESPN is showing an early game every evening and from Monday to Thursday one of the early games is also the MLB.com Free Game to watch live online.

Note that MLB.com is currently doing a Fourth of July promotion so that if you sign up before the end of Tuesday night you can buy MLB.TV Premium for the rest of the season for only $20.17 (plus $4.03 to cover VAT for UK residents, so $24.20 or approximately £18.70).

Sixteen teams are playing at least two games that dip below the pre-midnight UK cut-off (accepting that four of the games are only just falling into that bracket).

Chicago Cubs fans, always likely to enjoy an early game or two most weeks, can see their team in action four times this working week (Monday being the only blank), with the Brewers, Phillies and Pirates all playing three early games each too.

All times are in BST.
