There will be a pair of afternoon games on Friday. One is common as it will see the Atlanta Braves against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The second has the Washington Nationals playing host to the Philadelphia Phillies in an NL East clash.

AL East teams will be against each other with Tampa Bay visiting Baltimore and the Toronto Blue Jays seeking to gain ground on the New York Yankees as they meet North of the border.

A rivalry of sorts – granted mostly from their rare postseason clashes in the World Series – sees the Boston Red Sox play host to the St. Louis Cardinals.

On the late side, there are four games that start after 9:40 p.m. ET with Oakland, Arizona, Seattle and the LA Dodgers all home.
