Unlike during the regular season, all ALCS playoff games will be televised nationally, meaning you won’t need a Regional Sports Network, except to watch your local pre-game and post-game coverage.
Because of pandemic, the games have shifted to a neutral site in San Diego where all seven games will be played at Petco Park. However, the Tampa Bay Rays will still be the home team in games 1, 2, 5, & 7 while the Astros will be in 3, 4, & 6.
