How to Stream 2022 MLB Spring Training Games Live on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, & Mobile

Just over a week after the end of the lockout, 2022 MLB Spring Training is here. Unlike the regular season, not every game makes it TV — but for those that do, there are still ways to stream your favorite baseball team's Spring Training games, even if you’ve cut the cord.

Some games will air locally on your team’s Regional Sports Network, but if you live away from your favorite team, you will be able to watch additional national telecasts on MLB Network, ESPN, and MLB.TV (the league’s out of market package).

For fans of teams on Bally Sports RSNs, YES Network, Spectrum SportsNet LA, or MASN — your options are most limited, since Bally Sports and YES Network were dropped by YouTube TV, Hulu Live TV, fuboTV and Sling TV.

Fortunately, you can still stream those games with DIRECTV STREAM Choice Plan ($84.99), which now offers a five-day free trial.

For fans of the Colorado Rockies (AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain), Chicago Cubs (Marquee Sports Network) Seattle Mariners (ROOT Sports Northwest), you’ll be able to stream games on either DIRECTV STREAM or fuboTV for the first time.

If you Live in the Same Market as Your Favorite Team

There are five major streaming providers that offer Live TV Streaming. These allow you to watch games live using iOS, Android, Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, and the web.

This is the best option for fans who want to watch local, in-market games on their regional sports network, as well as nationally televised games on MLB Network.

Starting at ~$35 a month, it’s an inexpensive way to stream your team’s games without having to commit to a cable subscription. When the season is over, you can cancel your subscription and save some money during the offseason.

If you live in the same market as your favorite team, most of their Spring Training games that are broadcast will be on a local regional sports network. You can stream every U.S.-based MLB team’s locally on Live TV Streaming Services; sorry Blue Jays’ fans.

Our Picks

However, since YouTube TV, Hulu Live TV, fuboTV and Sling TV have all dropped Sinclair-owned Bally Sports RSNs (formerly Fox Sports) your options are limited.

For the teams that are on Bally Sports RSNs, you will need to subscribe to DIRECTV STREAM Choice Plan, which now offers a 5-Day Free Trial. It now also incudes an Unlimited DVR and Unlimited at-home streams.

They are also the only service that carries New York Yankees (YES Network), Los Angeles Dodgers (Spectrum SportsNet LA), Baltimore Orioles (MASN), and Washington Nationals (MASN) games in your local market.

With other teams you have more options:

• fuboTV and DIRECTV STREAM both carry NESN (Boston Red Sox), AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh (Pirates) AT&T SportsNet Southwest (Astros), AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain (Colorado Rockies), and ROOT Sports Northwest (Seattle Mariners).
• NBC Sports RSNs are carried by nearly all of the Live TV Streaming Services like fuboTV, Hulu Live TV, and YouTube TV
  In Canada, we suggest checking out Sportsnet NOW for Toronto Blue Jays games, which costs $24.99 a month.

Since every service doesn’t carry every RSN, the handy chart below shows which teams are available on each service. Click on the team name to see the full Spring Training streaming schedule and which games you’ll be able to watch with each provider.

While Bally Sports is expected to launch the Bally Sports App for five teams in the first half of this year, timing and pricing have not yet been announced.

TBD

If you Live Away From Your Favorite Team

Spring Training National Telecasts

MLB Network

During Spring Training, MLB Network will broadcast daily Spring Training games. While some are available nationally, most are available only for fans outside of the local market.

To stream MLB Network, you will either need to subscribe, you can stream with a 7-Day Free Trial of fuboTV. It is also available on Sling TV and YouTube TV.

ESPN

Most services include ESPN in their basic plan. ESPN will broadcast select Spring Training games, but has yet to announce their TV schedule.

Spring Training Out-Of-Market Telecasts

MLB.TV

If you live away from your favorite team, you can still catch nearly every game. The MLB offers its out-of-market package, MLB.TV, for $139.99 (currently discounted to $129.99) to watch every team — which includes almost 300 Spring Training games. There is a 30% discount for Students and Military Members.

Unlike during the regular season, Spring Training games have no local blackouts, which means that local telecasts on your RSN will be able to be streamed.

Starting last season, you can subscribe on Amazon Prime Video Channels. You can stream on all major devices like Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, PS4, Xbox, iOS, Android, and Web.
