WATCH Pirates vs. Reds Live Stream Online, 'Opening Week' 2015, Cincinnati Leads Game 3: MLB Schedule, Scores, Power Rankings & More!

Baseball's back for the official 2015 MLB season!

The Pittsburgh Pirates take the field against the Cinncinati Reds following "Opening Day" on Thursday, April 9 at 12:35 p.m. EST at the Great American Ballpark in Ohio. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of Game 3 online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

Heading into Week 1 of the regular season, ESPN.com offers this official break-down of all 30 teams (power rankings):

Pirates (4): "Andrew McCutchen may be the best player in the National League, but look for Starling Marte to have a big year. He changed his stance midseason last year, dropping his leg kick, and hit .354 over the final two months." David Schoenfield (@dschoenfield), SweetSpot 

Reds (22): "Will this be Johnny Cueto's last Opening Day as a Red? Can everyone stay healthy? If not, can the Reds compete? They have a ton of question marks, and GM Walt Jocketty didn't appear to answer many of them in the offseason. But hope always springs eternal this time of the year." Chad Dotson (@dotsonc), Redleg Nation 

Cincinnati currently leads the series 2-0.

The afternoon ball game will be broadcasted live on local channels RTPT and FSOH.
