MLB.TV is great but it is not the only game in town. Watching baseball in 2025 can be a bit of a puzzle with different channels streaming services and blackout rules. Let's untangle it all and see what your options are to watch the Texas Rangers and other MLB teams:

- Fubo: This streaming service is like cable TV for cord-cutters. It has ESPN Fox MLB Network and many regional sports networks. Perfect if you want local channels national broadcasts and a lot of baseball. You might need to add MLB.TV for some specific team coverage though.
- ESPN: Old reliable ESPN still has "Sunday Night Baseball" and some regular season games plus playoffs. Easy to access through most TV providers and streaming services.
- Fox and FS1: Fox is a major MLB broadcaster with Saturday games "Baseball Night in America" and big events like the World Series and All-Star Game. FS1 carries games too. Available through most providers and the Fox Sports app.
- TBS: TBS has "MLB Tuesday" games and playoff coverage including the NLDS and NLCS. Another cable TV staple and streams on TBS and Max apps.
- Roku Channel: Roku is even getting into the game with "MLB Sunday Leadoff" games that are FREE on the Roku Channel. Blackout free too! Worth checking out for Sunday games.
- Apple TV+: Apple TV+ has "Friday Night Baseball" doubleheaders. You will need an Apple TV+ subscription but they carry a good chunk of Friday games.
- Regional Sports Networks (RSNs): This is where things get local. Teams like the Texas Rangers often have deals with regional sports networks. Figuring out which RSN carries the Rangers and how to get it can be tricky but it's your best bet for watching local games if you are in the area. Check local listings for the Rangers specific RSN.
- FanDuel Sports Network (FDSN): A newer player FDSN carries games for some teams. It is available through some TV providers and their app. Worth seeing if the Rangers are on FDSN in your region.
- NBC Sports Regional Networks: Similar to FDSN NBC Sports has regional networks that carry some MLB teams. Again check if the Rangers are part of the NBC Sports lineup in your area.
Blackouts Explained: Why Can't I Watch Every Game Everywhere?
Blackouts are the frustrating part of watching MLB. Basically blackout rules are in place to protect local TV broadcasts. If a game is being shown on a local channel in your area then MLB.TV and sometimes other services will "black out" that game to encourage you to watch it on local TV instead.
Blackout zones can be pretty big sometimes covering entire states or regions. You can check blackout restrictions on the MLB website by entering your zip code to see what games might be blacked out for you. It is annoying but it's just part of the baseball viewing landscape for now.
