It will take a little extra effort to watch Phillies-Mets Friday.
For the second consecutive day, the two NL East rivals will be on a national broadcast. The Mets beat the Phillies 10-6 last night on FOX. The Phillies will look to even the four-game series this evening on Apple TV+.
Wayne Randazzo will be the play-by-play voice for Apple TV+ with former All-Star lefty Dontrelle Willis serving as the game analyst. Heidi Watney will be the dugout reporter.
You do need a subscription to watch Friday Night Baseball on Apple TV+. You get access to all of the programming on the streaming service for $9.99 a month. Apple TV+ is offering a two-month free trial to new subscribers that you can access here.

The Phillies can clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Mets Friday, although their magic number is at four to win the NL East, so the earliest they could claim their first division title since 2011 is on Saturday. Tom McCarthy and Ben Davis will be back on the call for NBC Sports Philadelphia Saturday.
Sunday's series finale will again be a national broadcast, as the Phillies will play on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball. Karl Ravech will be the play-by-play announcer, with David Cone and Eduardo Pérez in the booth. Buster Olney will be the dugout reporter.
