    Users can choose to follow the entire league for “All Teams” ($149.99) plan, which is also available for “All Teams” ($29.99) a month, or you can stream one team’s out-of-market games for “Single Team” ($129.99).

    One major caveat about the service: Your local games may be blacked out through MLB.TV, so you may still need to watch through your local provider.
