The Los Angeles Dodgers face the New York Yankees in the 2024 World Series, and because the games are on Fox, they'll be available in 4K.

The 2024 World Series is almost here! This year, the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees will square off in a battle of two of MLB’s most storied franchises. The best-of-seven series begins Friday, Oct. 25, and all games will be played on Fox.

Since Fox is one of the only broadcast channels that offers events in 4K, audiences will be able to watch the World Series in Ultra-High-Definition in 2024. However, games are not natively broadcast in 4K but are upscaled to UHD. That means only specific outlets will carry 4K World Series games, and they won’t be found in 4K on Fox network affiliates via antenna. Check out which services offer the World Series in 4K below!

Best Live TV Streaming Service for Watching the 2024 World Series: in 4K DIRECTV STREAM

DIRECTV STREAM is The Streamable’s favorite choice for watching the 2024 World Series in 4K. This service offers dedicated 4K channels for many live events, including a sports channel. These 4K options are available with all DIRECTV STREAM packages at no extra cost.

DIRECTV STREAM comes with a five-day free trial, after which plans start at $87 per month. It’s a great service overall, and sports fans will love the ability to stream the World Series, select NFL games on Fox, and other events in 4K with their subscription.

Best Runner Up: Fubo

The best alternative to DIRECTV STREAM for watching the World Series in 4K is a subscription to Fubo. This service comes with a free trial as well, though its length depends on what time of month you sign up. You’ll have to upgrade plans to get 4K capability with Fubo; the Elite with Sports Plus package is the lowest level of the service that carries 4K options. Including the regional sports network fee, this plan starts at $115 per month after a free trial.

New Arrival: Sling TV

Sling TV has only offered 4K content for a few months, but it’s still a perfectly viable option to watch the World Series in 4K. This streamer starts at just $40 per month, but it only carries Fox in 19 markets: Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, Dallas, Gainesville, Houston, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New York City, Orlando, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle, Tacoma, Tampa, and Washington D.C.

If you live in one of these areas, you can use Sling’s newly established 4K streaming channels to watch World Series games with the Sling Blue plan.

Last Choice: YouTube TV

YouTube TV also allows viewers to watch content in 4K, and carries Fox in all major TV markets. However, you’ll have to grab the 4K Plus add-on to watch any UHD content on YouTube TV, boosting the price of streaming the World Series to at least $83 per month.
