How to Watch Chicago Cubs and Reds, TV Channel, Streaming Options, and Lineup
The Chicago Cubs continue their Cactus League campaign on Thursday afternoon when they welcome their divisional rivals the Cincinnati Reds to Sloan Park. The Cubs are coming off of an impressive 11-7 win over Team Canada on Wednesday.
The exhibition game on Wednesday was to help Team Canada prepare for the upcoming group stage of the World Baseball Classic and it was a unique opportunity to see Chicago face off against a country team.
Now, they turn their eyes towards a more conventional matchup with a well know foe in the Reds.
The Cubs plan on sending newly acquired starter Jameson Taillon to the mound to faceoff against the Reds' Hunter Greene.
It is an exciting matchup that could be a decent precursor to what we will see this season.
First pitch is slated for 2:05 p.m. CST and will be televised in the Chicago market on the Marquee Sports Network. Cincinnati will also have their own stream on Bally Sports Ohio, if you're into that sort of thing.
If you are in neither market, the game will be streamed live on MLB.tv.
