Calling All Baseball Fanatics: Unleash the MLB.TV Beast on Your Amazon Prime!
Hey there, fellow baseball enthusiasts! Are you tired of playing whack-a-mole with regional blackouts? Does the thought of missing a single swing by your favorite slugger make you break out in a cold sweat? Well, fret no more, because I'm here to introduce you to the glorious marriage of MLB.TV and Amazon Prime. It's a match made in baseball heaven, and let me tell you, it's a home run waiting to happen.
But First, You Say, "How Does This Work?"
Great question, my friend. Here's the skinny: MLB.TV is the official streaming service of Major League Baseball, offering a treasure trove of live games, replays, and behind-the-scenes content. The catch? You need a subscription. But here's where Amazon Prime swoops in like a superhero in a satin cape. Being a Prime member unlocks the door to a smorgasbord of Prime Video Channels, and guess what? MLB.TV is one of them! Basically, you can add MLB.TV to your Prime account for an extra fee, giving you access to all that baseball goodness without needing a separate subscription.
Setting Up MLB.TV on Prime: Easier Than Stealing Candy From a Baby (But Please Don't Steal Candy From Babies)
Now, you might be thinking, "This sounds amazing, but how do I actually set it all up?" Fear not, my baseball brethren, for the process is easier than stealing a base...well, maybe easier than stealing second base. Here's a quick rundown:
- Make Sure You Have the Goods: First things first, you'll need two things: an active Amazon Prime membership and a separate MLB.TV account (you can sign up for one on their website if you haven't already).
- Head Over to Prime Video Channels: Navigate to the Prime Video Channels section on your Amazon account (it might be on your computer, phone, or streaming device).
- Find Your MLB.TV Match: Search for the MLB.TV channel and click that bad boy.
- Sign Up and Unleash the Baseball Frenzy! Follow the on-screen instructions to add MLB.TV to your Prime Channels and link your existing MLB.TV account (or sign up for a new one if you haven't already). Boom! You're now ready to devour every MLB game like a starving fan at a free hot dog night.
Pro Tip: Once you're all set up, download the MLB.TV app on your favorite device. This will give you even easier access to all the games, replays, and highlights you can handle.
