If you’ve been waiting patiently, or impatiently, through nine spring training games to get a live look at the Braves, you’ll finally get a chance Friday.

Well, half of them at least.

The Braves’ exhibition game against the Cardinals at 1:05 p.m. will be broadcast by cable channel Fox Sports South.

But the Braves actually play two games Friday so only half of the squad will be on hand for the TV game. The Braves play St. Louis in Jupiter, Fla., and they face the Phillies in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., in a game that is not televised.

Six Braves games will be televised in March.  Some spring games have already been available by subscription streaming service at MLB.TV and Wednesday's game was broadcast on tape delay late at night on the MLB Network.

The Braves open the regular season on April 4 against the Nationals at Turner Field at 4:10 p.m.
