A Note on MLB.TV
MLB.TV remains an out-of-market product. For 22 of 30 clubs, a separate local in-market subscription is available inside the MLB app (~$19.99/month or ~$99.99/season), and it is blackout-free. However, games exclusive to national partners — NBC/Peacock, Netflix, Apple TV, FOX, ESPN — are simply not included in the MLB.TV package. That’s not a blackout; they were never part of the deal.

Starting Pitchers
- Cardinals — Michael McGreevy (RHP): 6-9, 3.97 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, 102 strikeouts, 147.1 IP
- Giants — Logan Webb (RHP): 8-8, 4.21 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, 119 strikeouts, 149.2 IP
What to Watch For
St. Louis arrives at Oracle Park in a critical spot: at exactly .500 (72-72), the Cardinals are still fighting to stay relevant in the division race with the season winding down. San Francisco, on the other hand, is all but eliminated at 59-85 — this game means something very different depending on which dugout you’re sitting in.
On the mound, McGreevy carries the lower ERA (3.97 vs. 4.21), while Webb has the edge in control with a tighter WHIP (1.16 vs. 1.26) and more strikeouts (119 vs. 102). The numbers are close enough to make this a genuine pitching duel — even if the standings tell two very different stories.
