Live broadcasts will be Saturdays throughout the regular season, expanding to Fridays as well once the Mets season wraps up on September 30th.  In addition, there will be a bonus Friday night game offered on opening night of the season, since the Mets are out in San Francisco with a 10:15pm first pitch.
