The Not-So-Great News: The LG App MIA
Here's the thing: as of today, there isn't a dedicated MLB app for LG Smart TVs. That's right, it's like they struck out trying to download the app. But don't throw in the towel just yet! We've got a few workarounds that'll have you yelling "batter up!" in no time.
Workaround #1: Unleash the Power of AirPlay (For Apple Users Only)
Calling all iPhone and iPad comrades! If you're rocking an LG Smart TV with webOS 4.0 or later (manufactured around 2018 or onwards), then AirPlay is your secret weapon. Here's the battle plan:
- Download the MLB.TV app on your Apple device.
- Log in with your MLB.TV credentials (or create an account if you're a newbie).
- Mirror, mirror on the wall: Make sure your LG Smart TV and Apple device are on the same Wi-Fi network. Open the MLB.TV app, find the AirPlay icon (it looks like a little triangle with a rectangle underneath), and choose your LG Smart TV. Boom! Baseball magic on the big screen.
However, this option only works for Apple users. Android comrades, don't despair, we've got your back in the next workaround.
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
Workaround #2: Enter the Streaming Stick Crusaders (For Everyone Else)
This option involves a trusty little device called a streaming stick (think Roku, Amazon Fire Stick, or Chromecast). These nifty gadgets plug into your LG Smart TV's HDMI port and open up a world of streaming possibilities, including MLB.TV! Here's the drill:
- Grab your streaming stick of choice.
- Hook it up to your LG Smart TV's HDMI port.
- Download the MLB.TV app on your streaming stick.
- Log in with your MLB.TV credentials (or create an account if you're new to the game).
Now you can navigate the MLB.TV app through your streaming stick and enjoy baseball bliss on your LG Smart TV.
Pro Tip: These streaming sticks offer a ton of other streaming services too, so you can turn your LG Smart TV into a full-fledged entertainment hub.
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.
So You've Got Options, Baseball Fanatic!
Now you're armed with the knowledge (and hopefully a bag of chips) to watch MLB games on your LG Smart TV. Remember, even though there's no native MLB app, these workarounds will have you cheering louder than a stadium full of fans.
