NBC begins a summer stretch of “Sunday Night Baseball” on its primetime schedule with a Cardinals–Cubs game. Multiple outlets report that the broadcast is positioned as the start of NBC’s longer midyear run, when its baseball coverage moves into the Sunday night time slot. The first matchup features the St. Louis Cardinals against the Chicago Cubs, setting the tone for the network’s upcoming series of televised games. The coverage is described as beginning to build momentum for NBC’s baseball schedule, implying more games to follow throughout the summer on weeknights or Sundays depending on NBC’s programming lineup. Both sources frame the announcement similarly: the show is launching its summer schedule on NBC, and the opening event is the Cardinals–Cubs matchup. No additional details are provided in the supplied excerpts about start time, announcers, or subsequent games beyond the fact that the summer stint begins this week with the featured pairing.
