    The Houston Astros and the Philadelphia Phillies won't have to wait long to reignite their World Series rivalry in the coming 2023 regular season.

    It's been known for a while, well before their world championship series, that the 'Stros will face off with Philadelphia for a three-game series April 28-30 at Minute Maid Park.

    The series finale will now be a nationally televised affair as part of ESPN's "Sunday Night Baseball" slate.

    Two Astros matchups were chosen among eight early-season games. Aside from the World Series rematch on April 30, Houston will also face off with its Lone Star Series rivals, the Texas Rangers, on April 16.

    Both games will be broadcast on ESPN at 6 pm. The games will also be available on ESPN Radio, ESPN Deportes, and the ESPN App.

    Monday's announcement comes weeks after the network announced it will show the Astros' championship banner reveal before they take on the Chicago White Sox on Opening Night, March 30.

    How to get the first tickets for 2026 FIFA World Cup games in Houston

    The application period for the first ticket draw for the FIFA World Cup 26 is set to open on September 10, but football/soccer fans can register now to get their hands on tickets to matches at NRG Stadium in Houston and elsewhere.

    Running June 11-July 29, the 2026 World Cup will feature games in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, marking the first time the international tournament has been played in more than one country since 2002 in South Korea and Japan.

    This is also only the second time the U.S. has hosted the tournament; they hosted it solo in 1994. Mexico has hosted twice before, in 1970 and 1986, while Canada is hosting for the first time ever.

    Most of the games will be played in the U.S., as it features 11 of the 16 match sites, including Houston and Arlington.

    As participants in the tournament — which will number 48 for the first time, going up from 32 — are still being determined, individual game matchups have yet to be set.

    NRG Stadium is scheduled to host seven matches over the course of the tournament. That includes five group stage matches, one in the Round of 32, and one in the Round of 16.

    Fans can go to FIFA.com/tickets to register their interest and create a FIFA ID, the first phase in a multi-part process to get tickets. On September 10, those who are registered can use their IDs to apply for their first chance to buy tickets.

    Although the price of single-game tickets is not yet known, hospitality packages offering premium seats, food & drink, and more amenities can be purchased now, starting at $1,350 per person.

    The Final Draw for the FIFA World Cup 26 is set to take place in December, with teams assigned to specific match schedule fixtures, including venues and kick-off times, shortly thereafter.

    There will be several distinct ticket sales phases all the way to the final match, and each phase may differ in purchasing processes, payment methods, and ticket products; full details on each phase will be released in the coming months.
