Notes

  1. Originally scheduled to air on Fox Sports 1, the first 30 minutes of the game were broadcast on Fox Sports 2 due to a scheduling conflict with a broadcast of automobile racing practice runs on Fox Sports 1. The broadcast switched to Fox Sports 1 at 12:00 noon EST with the game in progress.
gollark: I can catch.
gollark: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
gollark: Seems like it. The hatchlings have basically the same time as the other stuff, sooo...
gollark: Hatchlings show up sorted with the other stuff, I think.
gollark: I would not put greenness checking past TJ09.
