How to live stream MLB games

Despite the thousands of games available for fans to watch during an MLB season, it can be fairly difficult to watch a live broadcast of a game if a viewer is not in that team's television market. But the new option on the scene for 2019 is DAZN's "ChangeUp," a live look-in whiparound show hosted by Adnan Virk.

While the streaming platform doesn't carry MLB games in their entirety, "ChangeUp" is targeting baseball fans who want to keep up with action from every game at once, showing highlights, live at-bats, analysis, interviews and more. You can subscribe to DAZN here for a monthly rate of $19.99. It also offers a yearlong package for $99.99.

For national broadcasts during the regular season, ESPN will to air a game every Sunday as part of its Sunday Night Baseball telecast. These and any other games ESPN airs can be streamed live via the WatchESPN app. 

Most others fall into regional sports networks, with the majority being owned by Fox Sports properties. All games on Fox Sports are streamed live on the FoxSportsGo app but are only available if the viewer streams the game in the required region. MLB.tv offers a premium 'At Bat' app that streams up to 90 games a week with a paid subscription, but local TV markets are subject to MLB's blackout policy.
