The second year of Friday Night Baseball on Apple TV+ sees 25 weeks of action, though there will be no more free games to watch.

"Friday Night Baseball" starts off with the Texas Rangers at the Chicago Cubs for the inaugural daytime game at Wrigley Field. Then the San Diego Padres at the Atlanta Braves, complete the first of Apple's weekly doubleheaders.

"We can't wait for 'Friday Night Baseball' to start up again, and we're excited for fans to experience everything new we're bringing this season," Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Services, said in a statement. "Apple TV+ truly has something for everyone, from two live baseball games every Friday night, to an incredible slate of award-winning original films and series — there's never been a better time to sign up."

This year fans will have no choice but to sign up to an Apple TV+ subscription, however. Last season, Apple offered certain games for free, but none have been announced as free-to-air this time.

Lauren Gardner returns to present live pre- and post-game coverage, alongside Siera Santos. Former MLB umpires Brian Gorman and Dale Scott will join the team.

Announcers during the games will include Wayne Randazzo and Alex Faust, who will be providing play-by-play commentary. Heidi Watney and Tricia Whitaker are sideline reporters, while Ryan Spilborghs is an analyst.

As with its first season, Apple TV+ is launching various MLB series ahead of the first game. This time, they include "Countdown to First Pitch," plus recaps of previous games.

During the season, Apple TV+ will host "MLB Big Inning," a highlights and live look-in "whip-around show."
