Spring is right around the corner (well, almost), and that means baseball season isn’t far off. While the major leaguers are starting to get warmed up, the college season will be kicking off again as well, and ESPN will offer close to 4,000 games for 2025. Top teams Duke, Tennessee, Virginia, Florida State, Clemson, LSU, and more will be featured throughout the coverage, including the inaugural Puerto Rico Challenge from February 14-17.

Key Details

• ESPN properties to offer 3,900 games for the 2025 college baseball season
• 19 of the top 25 ranked teams will be featured
• 40 matchups will be between the top 25 teams

ESPN will offer games across all of its platforms, including ESPN2, ESPNU, SEC Network, ACC Network, ESPN+, SEC Network+ and ACCNX, with every game also available via the ESPN app. Headlining the coverage will be matchups from preseason top 25 ranked teams, including defending champs Tennessee vs. Texas A&M (April 4 & 6) and Virgina vs. Florida State (April 17) in an ACC showdown. The inaugural Puerto Rico Challenge will also be broadcast live on ESPN+ from February 14-17, with eight teams, including Virgina, Steson, and UConn.

For watching the most college baseball in 2025, I recommend a subscription to DIRECTV STREAM as it includes ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU and other live sports networks. You’ll be able to catch more of these game than you can shake a bat at and still have time for the slew of other content DIRECTV STREAM has to offer. Get started for as low as $86.99 per month.
