Brewers Wrap Up Road Trip with Exclusive Peacock Streaming Game vs. Pirates
The Milwaukee Brewers conclude a grueling 11-game road trip on Sunday, July 12, with a series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Unlike standard broadcasts, this midday contest will be available exclusively via streaming, marking the team’s second consecutive Sunday appearance on the platform.
First pitch is scheduled for 11:15 a.m. CT. The matchup closes out the schedule before the MLB All-Star break and concludes a three-city stretch that included two doubleheaders in a single week.
The broadcast is being carried by Comcast Corporation through its Peacock streaming service. NBCUniversal’s platform has secured rights to select MLB games this season, with the Brewers featuring on the service multiple times. Fans cannot view the game on the team’s usual cable channel; access requires a Peacock subscription. The service currently offers a premium tier for $10.99 per month or an ad-free tier for $16.99 monthly, with no free trial available.
From a roster management perspective, Milwaukee will be without ace Jacob Misiorowski. The team announced the 2026 NL Cy Young Award front-runner will skip the start due to fatigue following Saturday’s doubleheader sweep. Robert Gasser is slated to take the mound instead as the Brewers aim to secure a 60th win before the break.
Investors tracking Comcast Corporation often look toward subscriber growth in its connectivity and streaming segments. As of the previous market close, CMCSA was trading at $23.57, up roughly 0.9% for the day.
