White Sox Spring Training Broadcast Schedule Announced

The pandemic may still be affecting Arizona and Major League Baseball, certainly having ramifications on Spring Training, but the White Sox on Monday released a standard, even progressive, Cactus League broadcast schedule.

With a nod to the pandemic, no road games will be broadcasted by the White Sox partners, but every game at Camelback Ranch (including the White Sox “road” game against the Dodgers on March 8) will be broadcast in some form.

All games listed above as streaming on whitesox.com will also be streamed on the White Sox YouTube and Facebook sites.

The March 15 game hosting the Cubs will be streamed at whitesox.com and broadcast on ESPN-1000.

Here’s the full/copyedited White Sox release:
