Monday Night Baseball is an American live game telecast of Major League Baseball (MLB) that airs on Monday nights during the regular season. Earlier incarnations of Monday Night Baseball aired on NBC and then ABC in the 1970s and 1980s. Since 1992, Monday Night Baseball has primarily aired on ESPN.
From 1992 to 2021, games started at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN, following SportsCenter, and usually lasted around three hours leading up to an hour-long Baseball Tonight. The program sometimes aired on ESPN2 rather than ESPN, often due to NBA playoff coverage in April and May, and preseason Monday Night Football coverage in August.
Beginning with the 2022 Major League Baseball season, ESPN significantly reduced their MLB schedule, which included cutting their Monday Night Baseball games. Monday night games now occasionally air on Fox Sports 1 as part of their irregularly scheduled weeknight games, and on MLB Network as part of their MLB Network Showcase package.
