This weekend marks the inaugural "Rivalry Weekend" in the MLB featuring fifteen matchups between longtime rivals, all happening between May 16-18. Included in the pairings are the Chicago White Sox vs. Chicago Cubs, the Houston Astros vs. Texas Rangers, and one of the most famous rivalries of all, the Subway Series between the New York Yankees and the New York Mets. This weekend's series is also notable as it marks Juan Soto's return to Yankee Stadium, this time in a Mets uniform. While these rivalries will be bringing some heat, the good news is that you can watch the entire Subway Series and every other Rivalry Weekend game for free on on MLB.
