How to watch the Braves at Cubs: Time, TV, starting pitchers Saturday, Sunday

By
April 14, 2018

The Braves will try to continue their three-game series Saturday at Wrigley Field in Chicago. The forecast calls for rain at about 5:15 ET, but rain has been coming down hard for much of the day, but the plan still is to play the game.

On Friday, the Braves got a three-run homer from Preston Tucker and defeated the Cubs 4-0. The Braves (8-5) won three of their first four series of the season, and would make it four of five with a victory either Saturday or Sunday.

If you want to watch the games Saturday and/or Sunday, here are some details:

Networks: Both games on Fox Sports South

Time: Both games scheduled for 2:20 p.m. ET

Radio: Both games on 680 AM/93.7 FM/106.7 FM

Scheduled starting pitchers

Saturday: LH Sean Newcomb (1-1, 4.35) of the Braves and LH Jose Quintana (1-1, 4.50) of the Cubs.

Sunday: RH Julio Teheran (0-1, 7.07) of the Braves and RH Tyler Chatwood (0-2, 4.91) of the Cubs.
