On Wednesday, Major League Baseball announced the start times for each game of the 2018 regular season.
All 30 teams will play on Opening Day (March 29), with the Miami Marlins set to host the Chicago Cubs. The game at Marlins Park is scheduled for 12:40pm ET, the earliest start in the sport’s history excluding international openers. The game will start a half-hour before the New York Mets start at home against the St. Louis Cardinals and Detroit Tigers host the Pittsburgh Pirates in the lone interleague opener.

Derek Jeter will enter Year 1 of his team’s rebuilding phase with 22 home games on the schedule being daytime games. They are concentrated toward the second half of the season, with only five early starts during the first two months.
Once the season gets flowing, typical Marlins home games will start at 7:10pm from Monday through Saturday. Sunday games will kick off around 1:10pm. The club won’t be featured on any of ESPN’s nationally televised Sunday night matchups.
The Fish enjoy five days off in April alone:
- Wednesday, April 4
