Stream MLB games almost daily for less than $25 with this bundle
This parcel of three streaming services will deliver a ton of baseball action throughout the 2025 season.
Are you ready for Opening Day? The 2025 MLB regular season is nearly here, and if you want to watch games from the league without a particular attachment to which teams you’re seeing every day, I’ve got great news. There’s a fantastic way to stream MLB games almost every single day of the season without having to pay $60, $70, or $80 per month for an expensive TV plan stuffed with other channels you probably don’t want to watch in the first place.
Check below and learn more about this budget streaming bundle I’ve assembled to help you watch live MLB games nearly every day of the 2025 MLB season for less than $25 per month.
What’s the best budget streaming bundle available for watching live MLB games?
ESPN+
ESPN+ is the first service on this list, and it delivers a surprising amount of live baseball games every year. There are four to six MLB games available on ESPN+ each week of the regular season, but here’s the catch: if one of the teams playing is in your local market, it will be blacked out in your area. If you don’t mind those restrictions, however, you can watch an MLB game almost daily with an ESPN+ subscription.
This streamer costs $12 per month on its own, and grants subscribers access to tens of thousands of other live sporting events each year, including select NBA games, some “Monday Night Football” contests during NFL season, every out-of-market NHL game, and college sports events beyond count.
Cost of ESPN+: $12 per month
Apple TV+
Next in the bundle comes Apple TV+, which doesn’t offer a wide selection of live sports. But it does come with “Friday Night Baseball,” a series of MLB doubleheaders presented on Friday nights throughout the season. It may not offer the same quantity of games as ESPN+, but it does come with one feature you won’t find on that service: blackout-free streams. Every game in the “Friday Night Baseball” series is available to all subscribers in the United States.
Apple TV+ will cost you $10 per month, and for that price you get ad-free access to all the shows and movies in its library, in addition to “Friday Night Baseball” games. This service also comes with a seven-day free trial for new subscribers in the United States.
Cost of Apple TV+: $10 per month
Roku Channel
This bundle ends with The Roku Channel, which offers a free game on Sunday mornings during the season as part of the Sunday Leadoff package. Roku recently announced the 2025 schedule for this package, unlocking free games every Sunday between mid-May and the first weekend of September. Each game is free to stream, and there are no blackouts if any of the teams playing reside in your local market!
As always, the Roku Channel is completely free to stream. You can watch MLB Sunday Leadoff, thousands of on-demand titles, or hundreds of free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) channels with your subscription, and all you need is a valid email address and password to create an account.
Cost of The Roku Channel: $0
Cost of Roku Channel, Apple TV+, and ESPN+ bundle: $22 per month

Apple TV
Apple TV (formerly known as Apple TV+) is a subscription video streaming service for $14.99 per month, offering a growing slate of original series, films, documentaries, and specials. Unlike other platforms that combine licensed titles with originals, Apple TV is built entirely around exclusive programming, making it the home of critically acclaimed hits such as “Ted Lasso,” “Severance,” “The Morning Show,” and “Silo.” Its lineup continues to expand with award-winning dramas, comedies, family-friendly shows, and blockbuster original films like “CODA,” which won the Academy Award for Best Picture.

Roku Channel
The Roku Channel is a free, ad-supported streaming service that offers a broad mix of movies, TV shows, live linear channels, and original programming. Available to all viewers — not just Roku device owners — the service features licensed content from major studios alongside Roku Originals, which include exclusive series, movies, and specials previously produced for Quibi, as well as new original projects developed specifically for the platform.
