PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Just a few days after the Philadelphia Phillies released their schedule for the coronavirus-shortened season, fans now also know who the team will be facing next season. The Phillies will kick off the 2021 season with back-to-back series against NL East opponents.

The Phillies' home schedule also includes interleague play with American League East teams. This includes weekend series against Boston Red Sox on May 21-23 and New York Yankees on June 12-13.

The 2021 home schedule will end with the Phillies taking on the Pittsburgh Pirates in a four-game series on September 23-26.
