Cubs Announce Updated 2022 Schedule

The Cubs announced their updated 2022 regular-season schedule Monday, starting with the home opener on Thursday, April 7 against the Brewers.

Following the season-opening, four-game homestand against the Brewers, the Cubs head out on a six-game trip to Pittsburgh (April 12-13) and Colorado (April 14-17), before returning to Chicago for seven games against Tampa Bay (April 18-20) and Pittsburgh (April 21-24).

The 2022 schedule is highlighted by interleague play against the American League East plus the annual home-and-home with the Chicago White Sox, which features a pair of two-game series from May 3-4 (at Wrigley Field) and May 28-29 (at Guaranteed Rate Field). 

In addition to the games against the White Sox, the Cubs interleague schedule includes hosting three A.L. East opponents: the Tampa Bay Rays (three games, April 18-20), the Boston Red Sox (three games, July 1-3) and the Baltimore Orioles (two games, July 12-13). The Cubs also travel to Baltimore (two games, June 7-8), New York (three games, June 10-12) and Toronto (three games, August 29-31).

The Cubs will play two scheduled split doubleheaders on Saturday, June 4 and Tuesday, August 23 against the St. Louis Cardinals, making up for the games previously scheduled on April 4 and 6 respectively. The make-up games will act as the first game in each doubleheader.

Unique to the 2022 season, the Cubs will travel to Dyersville, IA for a matchup against the Cincinnati Reds in the MLB at Field of Dreams presented by GEICO Thursday, August 11.

The Cubs are scheduled to host three holiday games in 2022: Mother’s Day, May 8 vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers; Memorial Day, May 30 vs. Milwaukee Brewers; and Father’s Day, June 19 vs. the Atlanta Braves. The Cubs will be on the road for the Fourth of July at Milwaukee. Chicago is off on Labor Day, September 5.
