The first game of the Dodgers’ series against the Braves at Truist Park in Atlanta is the team’s final game on Apple TV+ this season, which requires a paid subscription to watch.
Major League Baseball and Apple have been running a promotion all season that allows new and returning customers to (re)subscribe to Apple TV+ for two free months to start, and that promotion is still going and valid until the code expires on September 27.
For those of you — like me — who signed up for two months of free Apple TV+ to watch the Dodgers play the Astros in Houston on July 26, this game against the Braves falls within that free window, so you’re in luck.
For Friday’s game in Atlanta, Wayne Randazzo will call play-by-play along with analyst Dontrelle Willis, with reporter Heidi Watney also on the telecast.
Two of the four games in Atlanta, in a wraparound series that ends Monday night, won’t be televised by SportsNet LA. Sunday’s game is an exclusive ESPN game on ‘Sunday Night Baseball’.
This is the Dodgers’ fourth Apple TV+ game this season, having won two of the three games so far on the network in 2024. They beat the Cardinals on March 29 at Dodger Stadium and the Yankees on June 7 at Yankee Stadium, and lost the July 26 game in Houston to the Astros.
