Two Cubs will be in the starting lineup tonight at Truist Park.
First pitch for the 2025 All-Star Game is officially scheduled for 7 p.m. CT, but you know how that goes, could be a bit later than that after all the pre-game festivities.
The game will be broadcast over the air on Fox-TV, so check your local listings for the Fox affiliate in your market. Dodgers broadcaster Joe Davis, who is Fox’s main baseball play-by-play voice, will call PBP with John Smoltz, Ken Rosenthal and Tom Verducci also contributing to the broadcast.
Fox’s pregame show will begin at 6 p.m. CT and feature Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter and David Ortiz joining host Kevin Burkhardt.
The game will also be on Fox Deportes in Spanish, with Adrian Garcia Marquez and former MLB infielder Edgar Gonzalez alongside veteran MLB broadcasters Carlos Alvarez, Jaime Motta and Michelle Liendo.
As you know, the Cubs will have two starting players in tonight’s contest, Pete Crow-Armstrong and Kyle Tucker. Matthew Boyd also was named, but won’t pitch, though he will be introduced with the rest of the National League All-Stars. Since there are two Cubs starting players in this year’s game, I will be posting a game recap tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. CT.
Here are rest of the particulars for tonight’s game.

This is the second straight All-Star start for Paul Skenes, and the first start for Tarik Skubal (though he was an American League All-Star last year).
Fun fact: These two pitchers are the only current MLB players whose names begin with “Sk.”
