MLB Opening Day 2023: Full schedule of openers for all 30 teams originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
The 2022 World Series has wrapped with the Commissioner's Trophy landing in the hands of Houston Astros, and now it's time to look ahead to next season. There will be some March Madness in 2023 in Major League Baseball.
Opening Day for the 2023 season will be March 30, with all 30 teams scheduled to play. Barring postponement, it will be the first time since 1968 that every MLB team opens on the same day.
That includes some teams starting the season with an interleague matchup, part of MLB's revamped format intended to create a more balanced schedule to reduce advantages in the wild card race.
For the first time in the interleague era, all 30 teams will play one another in a single season, creating a more similar schedule for teams in different divisions who are battling one another for playoff positioning.
It all begins in late March. Here are the scheduled openers for each team:
