MLB London 2023 on TV: How to watch Cardinals v Cubs baseball live in UK
Your complete guide to the MLB London game between the St Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs.
Major League Baseball returns to the east side of the Atlantic as the St Louis Cardinals face Chicago Cubs at the London Stadium in the capital.
The regular season MLB game between these teams was set to take place in 2020 – building on the MLB London debut in 2019 – but it was cancelled due to COVID-19 restrictions.
A new partnership has been signed that will see MLB games played in London in 2023, 2024 and 2026, so this is the perfect opportunity to dabble in a sport that will only increase its reach in the UK.
In terms of the teams, the Cardinals and Cubs are both experiencing disappointing seasons so far and will hope to use London to slingshot them up the NL Central standings.
However, the good news for the Cubs is that they have picked up eight victories from their last 10 – the joint second-best streak of form in the entire 30-team MLB.
