MLB Playoffs live stream 2022 How to watch post-season baseball online right now By Henry T. Casey published 10 October 2022 Your complete guide to watching the MLB playoffs online (Image credit: Adam Hunger/Getty Images) Jump to: FREE MLB Playoffs live streams MLB live streams around the world Full MLB Playoffs schedule with channels And the 2022 MLB playoffs live streams are flying out of the Wild Card weekend and approaching the ALDS and NLDS games. And, with our guide, you won't have to miss a single game. We've got the whole MLB post-season schedule, plus our picks on the most affordable way to stream it all online. On top of that, we've got a list of the games you can watch for free, too. Sunday saw the end of the Wild Card with the Mets getting bounced 6-0. Padres pitcher Joe Musgrove's shutout was so dominant that the Mets even had the umps check him for something behind his ears. No such cheating tools were found. Going to the ALCS, all eyes are on the Yankees. Aaron Judge just broke the American League's single-season home run record, vaulting over Roger Maris' 61 with his 62nd dinger (off of the Texas Rangers' Jesus Tinoco). And while he's been killing it all year, pinstripes and playoffs runs have been clashing in recent seasons, as the Bronx bullpen has been shakier than any as of late. What about the Atlanta Braves? Well, this year's roster is better than last year's, so it would be foolish to bet against the defending champs. That said, we wouldn't ever bet against Los Angeles either. The Dodgers' lineup offers the power of Mookie Betts, Trea Turner, Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy at the top, with Cody Bellinger and Joey Gallo at the bottom. So, without further ado, here's everything we know about how to watch the MLB live streams. FREE MLB Playoffs live streams How to watch MLB Playoffs live streams for FREE The MLB Playoffs will be on free-to-watch broadcast TV starting with the NLDS, which airs multiple games (see below) on FOX channels.

MLB live streams around the world How to watch MLB Playoffs live streams from anywhere on Earth If you're away from easy access to ESPN, FOX, TBS and FS1, you're not out of luck when it comes to following your team through the playoffs. Live streams are still possible in your current neck of the woods, though - because with a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN (opens in new tab), which offers superb speeds and excellent customer service. (opens in new tab) We think speed, security and simplicity make ExpressVPN (opens in new tab) second to none. During our tests, we saw fast connection times, and we're impressed by the service's ability to access more than 3,000 services spread out across 160 locations in 94 countries. There's a 30-day money-back guarantee if you're not satisfied.View Deal (opens in new tab) How to watch MLB Playoffs live streams in the US Finding MLB Playoffs live streams online is much easier online than regular season games that are locked behind regional sports networks. Our top pick for how to watch MLB Playoffs games online is with Sling TV's Blue and Orange pack. Orange gets you ESPN, while Blue gets you and Fox (provided you have a local affiliate), FS1 and TBS. This is part of why Sling is the best cable TV alternative. All of those channels, save for TBS, are on fubo TV. The $70 per month YouTube TV, Hulu with Live TV and DirecTV Stream all have the above channels as well, but Sling Orange + Blue is only $50. That affordability ensured its spot on our best streaming service list. (opens in new tab) One of the best options for watching nationally-broadcast MLB action is the Sling TV (opens in new tab) Blue + Orange package, which costs $45 as getting only one half ($30 per month) will have you losing out on some of the major networks: ESPN, Fox, Fox Sports and TBS. For another $10 per month, you can get the MLB Network tacked on, along with ESPNEWS, NBA TV, the NHL Network, and more. Local FOX and NBC affiliates are included.View Deal (opens in new tab) (opens in new tab) Fubo.TV (opens in new tab): One of the best streaming services with FOX, and many channels that have MLB live streams, Fubo is one of the top streaming services overall. Who needs cable? Not Fubo subscribers. It's got a 7-day free trial (opens in new tab) so you don't need to pay up front.View Deal (opens in new tab) How to watch MLB Playoffs live streams in the UK BT Sport is the place to watch MLB playoff games online in the United Kingdom. Don't have BT on your current package? You can get it directly with the £25 Monthly Pass (opens in new tab).

How to watch MLB Playoffs live streams in Canada Looking to watch MLB playoff games in the great white north? Well, Canadian sports fans will find games split across Sportsnet (the home of the since-eliminated Jays) and TSN. TVA Sports and RDS, depending on your language of choice and region, may also be your source. You can also get MLB.TV in Canada, though the Blue Jays will be subject to blackouts.

The services in the past have had select MLB games from ESPN. Kayo offers a 14-day free trial for both its Basic and Premium plans, more than enough time to confirm they're actually showing the games. The Basic package costs $25 per month (opens in new tab) thereafter. The $35 per month Premium Kayo plan gives you all the same things as the normal plan, but it offers three simultaneous streams. The Basic plan gives you two streams at the same time. MLB Playoffs live stream schedule and channels We've got the full schedule for the entire MLB post-season.
