MLB’s 2026 postseason begins Sept. 29 with four best-of-three Wild Card Series, with potential deciding games scheduled for Thursday. The Yankees-Red Sox series will get prime-time coverage, with all three possible games set for about 8 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. Other series will have afternoon or late-night starts, with some games airing on NBC Sports Network; the full postseason will also be available on Peacock. Spanish-language coverage will air on Universo and Univision, while ESPN Radio will provide national audio coverage of postseason games.
