At ViacomCBS Streaming Investor Day, Pluto TV announced that the MLB Channel would join its growing lineup of sports channels.
The station will feature classic and iconic games and highlights beginning March 2nd, ahead of Opening Day on April 1st. The new branded MLB channel will stream over 200 hours of classic content including iconic World Series and All-Star games, milestone performances, episodes of “Epic Moments,” “Baseball’s Seasons” and “Cathedrals of the Game” in addition to curated clips and playlists featuring top plays from the legendary sport.
Pluto TV’s MLB Channel joins its existing NFL Channel, Major League Soccer, PGA Tour, Bellator MMA, Pac-12 Insider, Impact Wrestling, and more. These channels are in addition to the hundreds of other content offerings available on the platform.
Similar to the relationship between NFL Channel and NFL Network, MLB Channel shouldn’t be confused with MLB Network, which is available on a Live TV Streaming Service. MLB Network includes live games and highlights, which MLB Channel does not.
