As part of a new media rights agreements MLB announced in 2025, NBC/Peacock is becoming the new home of “Sunday Night Baseball.”
The schedule for those Sunday nights was released on Friday, with the Rangers making a trio of appearances.
Texas will be featured on May 3 at the Detroit Tigers, May 24 at the Los Angels and again on June 14 at the Boston Red Sox.

NBC, which celebrates its 100th anniversary next year, has a long history with baseball, albeit not much recently. The network carried games from 1939 through 1989. It was part of the short-lived Baseball Network with ABC in 1994 and ’95 and then aired playoff games from 1996 through 2000.
Its first game will be on March 26 when the defending two-time champion Los Angeles Dodgers host the Arizona Diamondbacks.
The 25 Sunday night games will air mostly on NBC with the rest on the new NBC Sports Network. All will stream on Peacock.
The first “Sunday Night Baseball” game on NBC will be April 12 with the next one in May after the NBA playoffs.
