Watch Out-Of-Market MLB™ Games With MLB.TV on Sling
MLB.TV is now on Sling! Here's how to stream out-of-market games, plus nationally-televised MLB games on ESPN, FS1, TBS, MLB Network, and FOX (in select markets) with Sling.
If you’re one of the millions of people who live in a different city than your favorite MLB baseball team, we have great news: MLB.TV on Sling is bringing your favorite team to you.
Now available on Sling for $29.99 a month, MLB.TV lets you watch every regular season out-of-market MLB game! In addition to channels for all 30 teams, you’ll also have access to MLB Big Inning – which brings fans daily live look-ins, breaking highlights and the biggest moments as they happen – plus VOD to watch the games on your own schedule. Although MLB.TV does not include national TV broadcasts on ESPN, TBS, FOX, FS1, or streaming platforms (including the MLB All-Star Game, the MLB Postseason, and the World Series), your subscription includes At Bat (via the official MLB App), which gives you live audio of every MLB game (with no blackouts). If this wasn’t enough, you’ll also have access to select local pregame and postgame shows.

Does MLB.TV Include My Local Team?
No. MLB.TV offers subscribers access to all out-of-market games, not your local team. So if you’re a Chicago White Sox fan living in Boston, or a Boston Red Sox fan living in Chicago, MLB.TV is for you.
What Other Content is Included With MLB.TV?
Beyond live and on-demand games, you can unlock a host of other content by authenticating your subscription through the MLB app. Once authenticated, you can watch shows like MLB’s Inside Stitch, Baseball Zen, MLB’s Carded, condensed games, highlights, documentaries, and more!
How Do I Authenticate my Subscription in the MLB app?

Once signed in to your MLB.com account, visit commerce.mlb.com/ei, select Sling as your TV provider, and sign in with your Sling credentials.
Does MLB.TV Include Playoffs?
No. To watch MLB Playoff games on ESPN and TBS/ TNT, subscribe to Sling Orange. To watch games on FOX, subscribe to Sling Blue (in select markets).
Are Road Games Considered Out-Of-Market?
The confusion is understandable, but no. Whether your local team is playing at home or on the road, they will not be available on MLB.TV.
Can I Watch Nationally-Televised MLB Games With Sling?

Games airing on ESPN (Sunday Night Baseball), TBS (MLB on TBS Tuesdays), or FS1 (MLB on FS1) are available with a subscription to Sling Orange (which includes ESPN and TBS), Sling Blue (which includes FS1), or Sling Orange + Blue (all three channels).

How to Record Games on MLB.TV
