Diamondbacks vs Dodgers: Gallen's Opening Day Start

On March 26th, the Arizona Diamondbacks opened their regular season against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium in a nationally televised match-up.

It's set for Thursday night, marking a tough early test for the team.

Fans in Arizona won't find the game on their local dbex.tv streaming service through MLB.tv.

Instead, catch it on NBC cable or the Peacock streaming app, which requires a subscription.

For radio listeners, tune into Arizona Sports 98.7 FM or KNAI, FM or KNA 101.9 FM and 860 AM.

Diamondbacks broadcaster and legend Lewis Gonzalez joins the national booth as a color analyst,

teaming up with oral Hersheaser and play-by-play voice, Jason Benetti.

Right-hander Zach Galen takes the mound for the Diamondbacks,

earning the opening day start for the fourth year in a row.

He's just the third pitcher and team history to do that, stepping in after Merrill Kelly dealt with a back injury.

Galen faces Dodgers, Ritey, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who posted a strong 2.49 ERA last season.

Manager Tori LeVulo sees it as the perfect challenge to kick things off right,

with both teams bringing high expectations into this early clash.
