This much we know – the Braves opening game of the National League Championship Series will not be the early game.

Major League Baseball has not announced the time slots for the four Division Series that begin on Saturday. However, the Orioles announced on Wednesday that Game 1 of their ALDS will start around 1 p.m. The team’s social media post said the exact start time would be determined by MLB.

The Orioles will face the Rangers. The Astros play the Twins.

The Braves will host the Phillies in one NLDS and the Dodgers will host the Diamondbacks.

The 1 p.m. slot is likely the first game of the day, typically followed by a late afternoon and two evening games.

Stay tuned.
