How to watch Sunday Night Baseball on NBC and Peacock

NBC hasn’t been much of a player in MLB coverage in recent years, but the Universal network is returning to broadcast regular season baseball games for the 2026 season. In fact, there will be more diversity in MLB broadcasting than ever before this upcoming season, which officially begins on March 25 and will see Opening Day take place on March 26. Fans aren’t used to watching NBC and Peacock games, so how can they tune in, and just what is the NBC/Peacock schedule for this season?

How to watch NBC and Peacock MLB games

NBC coverage will begin right away, as the company will be covering the very first game of Opening Day when the Pittsburgh Pirates take on the New York Mets at 1 p.m. ET on March 26. The first primetime slot of the season will be NBC-covered, too. The Arizona Diamondbacks take on the back-to-back champion Los Angeles Dodgers at 8 p.m. ET. Most television providers include NBC in their TV packages, and Peacock streaming services start as low as $7.99 a month.
