The Mets' Opening Day game will not be televised by SNY. It will be on NBC and the streaming service Peacock.
The announcers will be Matt Vasgersian, former Mets pitcher Al Leiter and former Pirates and Mets infielder Neil Walker. NBC is planning to use local analysts alongside its regular play-by-play voices this season, its first with a regular baseball schedule since 2000.
SNY will have a pregame show starting at noon and then postgame coverage. Local station NBC 4 New York will also have a pregame show starting at noon.
NBC and Peacock’s coverage will begin at 1 p.m., with the game scheduled to start at 1:15.
The first Mets game on SNY will be the second game of the season on Saturday afternoon.
