Cutting the Cord, Not the Cable (Unless You Want To)
First things first, there are a couple of ways to score MLB Network on your Roku. Here's the rundown:
-
The Subscription Slingers: If you've already ditched traditional cable and embraced the world of streaming services, you're in luck! Several live TV streaming services, like fuboTV, YouTube TV, and Sling TV (with the Sports Extra package), offer MLB Network as part of their channel lineup. Just sign up, authenticate your account with your login info, and voila! Baseball bliss at your fingertips.
-
Going Solo with MLB.TV: Feeling adventurous and want to go all-in on baseball? You can subscribe directly to MLB.TV, which offers MLB Network along with a ton of out-of-market regular season games (blackouts apply, consult the fine print). This option is perfect for the die-hard fan who bleeds baseball and doesn't mind a more targeted subscription.
Pro Tip: Check out free trial offers for these services before committing. See if they offer the kind of games and content you crave.
Downloading the App (Duh)
Once you've secured your MLB Network access, you'll need to download the MLB app on your Roku device. It's free, painless, and lets you manage your account, favorite teams, and access all that glorious baseball content.
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
Now You're Speaking My Language (Baseball, That Is)
With the app downloaded and your subscription activated, you're officially ready to dive into the world of MLB Network. Settle in, grab some popcorn (or your favorite ballpark snack), and get ready for a season's worth of baseball knowledge, entertainment, and maybe even a few tears of joy (or frustration, depending on your team's performance).
Remember: You might need to log in to the MLB app using your subscription credentials from the service you chose (fuboTV, YouTube TV, etc.).
