MLB Network will host Thursday’s matchup between the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves with first pitch set for 7:20 p.m. ET. The game will take place at Truist Park in Atlanta and will air on Marquee Sports Network in the Cubs market and on Bally Sports Southeast in the Braves market. Adbert Alzolay and Bryse Wilson will start for Chicago and Atlanta, respectively.

If you aren’t around a TV to check out this primetime MLB matchup, you can stream the game via MLBNetwork.com and via the MLB app. But keep in mind that you need a cable-login subscription. If you don’t have a cable login to access MLB Network for a live stream, you can get a free trial from YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV, AT&T TV Now, FuboTV, or Sling TV to stream the game.

Atlanta comes into this game looking to complete a four-game sweep of Chicago. The Braves are 12-12 and tied for first place in the NL East. The Cubs are 10-14 and in last place in the NL Central.
