Major League Baseball announced its 2022 regular season schedule earlier today and has an Opening Day that will look different than in previous years.
In the past, only one game was played in prime time on Opening Day, but next year, all 30 clubs will take to the field on Thursday, March 31. Other notable dates for the upcoming season include Jackie Robinson Day – which will be celebrated April 15 – and the 92nd MLB All-Star Game which is scheduled for July 19.
In addition, inter-league play will continue throughout the season.
PIRATES:
The Pittsburgh Pirates will start off the 2022 season with intradivisional play. The Bucs host the St. Louis Cardinals on Opening Day and throughout Opening Weekend, then face the Cincinnati Reds on the road afterwards.
They return to PNC Park following that series with a two-game slate against the Chicago Cubs.
The Pirates welcome the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox to Pittsburgh in July and August. The Bronx Bombers make their appearance prior to the All-Star Break on July 5-6, while Boston comes to town for a three-game series Aug. 16-18
