Thursday, June 24
Southern League baseball, Mobile at Mississippi (7:05 p.m., Pearl, 103.9 FM): Get your drink on at the T-P on Thirsty Thursday. Between sips, you can watch the M-Braves play the BayBears.

Friday, June 25
Major League baseball, Detroit at Atlanta (6:30 p.m., CSS, 620 AM): The Braves and Tigers open an interleague series. Have these two ever played before?

Sunday, June 27
