DETROIT (WXYZ) — The Detroit Tigers won't be playing on national television next season very much. In fact, Fox Sports Detroit will broadcast all but one Detroit Tigers game in 2020.

FSD unveiled the broadcast schedule for the 2020 season, and the only game not on FSD will be the July 4 game which will be on Fox Sports 1.

“It promises to be a memorable season, one in which we start to see some of the young talent in the minors finally make an impact here in Detroit,” said Greg Hammaren, senior vice president and general manager of FOX Sports Detroit. “We’re excited to be the ones to show you on a daily basis that the Tigers are on their way back.”

Matt Shepard will be back with Jack Morris and Kirk Gibson on the calls, and there will be a two-hour Opening Day celebration show at 9 a.m. on March 30. The season will kick off on March 26 at 12 p.m.
