The baseball playoffs are in full swing as the New York Yankees host the Boston Red Sox in Game 1 of their Wild Card series on NBC and Peacock!

We’re still a few days away from October baseball, but the historic rivalry between the Yanks and Sox will have a new chapter written as the longtime adversaries collide under the bright lights of postseason baseball.

The best-of-three series begins tonight (September 29) as Cam Schlittler (14-6, 1.95 ERA, 239 Ks) gets the ball for New York, while Payton Tolle (9-6, 3.03 ERA, 171Ks) takes the mound for Boston.

Aaron Judge is still dealing with his calf injury, so he won’t be on New York’s 26-man roster for the AL Wild Card series, but Giancarlo Stanton, who hasn’t played since straining his right calf on April 24, will once again be wearing the pinstripes.

Which team will jump out to a 1-0 series lead? We’re about to find out! Here’s how to watch Game 1 of the Yankees-Red Sox series live online.
