Chicago Sun-Times • • sports
Key Points:
- The MLB divisional round schedule has the White Sox playing the Guardians with Games 3 and 4 at Guaranteed Rate Field set for 3 p.m. Wednesday and 4 p.m. next Thursday, respectively, which may limit traditional blackout game conditions until sunset.
- Games 1 and 2 in Cleveland are scheduled for noon Saturday and 4 p.m. Monday, with a potential Game 5 at 4 p.m. Oct. 10, possibly starting at 7 p.m. if it's the only game that day.
- All Sox-Guardians games will be broadcast on TBS, truTV, and HBO Max with commentary from Alex Faust, Ron Darling, and Lauren Jbara.
- The Sox-Guardians games are scheduled as the first games of the day, indicating the league and broadcasters prioritize other matchups, such as the Rays-Yankees series, which mostly occurs in prime time slots.
