Don't Panic! Finding the Padres on TV in 2024: A Hilarious Odyssey (Mostly)
Ah, Padres season! Time for sunshine, strikeouts, and the age-old question that plagues every fan: where in the heck can I watch the game? Fear not, fellow Friars faithful, for this trusty guide will illuminate your path to Padres nirvana (or at least Channel 57... maybe).
Calling All San Diegans (and Tijuana!): Your Padres Await
Living in the sunny San Diego area or across the border in Tijuana? You're in luck! You have multiple ways to catch the Padres dominate (hopefully) this season:
QuickTip: Slow down when you hit numbers or data.
Channel Surfing Champions: Grab your remote and set sail on the high seas of your cable package. Look for the Padres on:
- DirecTV (Channel 694-3): Because, you know, baseball and extreme sports, a perfect match.
- AT&T U-verse (Channel 781 or 1781): Just in case you need the game in standard or high definition, U-verse has you covered.
- Cox (Channel 83): Hopefully this channel brings you better luck than your high school gym class dodgeball games.
- Spectrum (Channel 305 or 443): Spectrum might be wide, but hopefully the Padres' pitching won't be in 2024.
Streaming Supreme Court: Looking to ditch cable and cut the cord? San Diego fans rejoice! Padres.TV is back for another season, offering all home and away games for a cool $19.99 a month (subject to national blackouts, but hey, who needs those?).
Out-of-Market Orphans: There's Hope Yet!
Fret not, displaced Padres fans! MLB.TV offers out-of-market packages to catch all the action, but you'll need to check your local restrictions.
Tip: Highlight sentences that answer your questions.

| What Channel Will The San Diego Padres Be On This Year |
Nationally Televised Glory
Tip: Absorb, don’t just glance.
The Padres will also grace the national stage throughout the season. Keep an eye out for them on:
- FOX
- FS1
- TBS
- ESPN
- MLB Network
- AppleTV+ (Because why not watch baseball with some sci-fi cred?)
Bonus Tip: If all else fails, there's always the classic "friend with cable" maneuver. Just be prepared to bring the snacks (and maybe some serious flattery).
QuickTip: Read a little, pause, then continue.
Frequently Asked Fan Questions (Because We Know You Have Them)
- How do I know which channel the Padres are on in my area? Check your cable or satellite provider's channel guide.
- Is there a way to stream Padres games for free? Outside of spring training, free streams are generally hard to come by legally. Your best bet is Padres.TV or MLB.TV with a subscription.
- What about radio broadcasts? You got it! All 162 regular season games will be on the radio in both English (97.3 The Fan) and Spanish (XEMO-AM La Poderosa 860).
- Help! I'm at a bar and they're only showing golf! This is a legitimate crisis. Try politely requesting the Padres game, or find a more Padres-friendly establishment.
- Can I watch the Padres from space? Theoretically, with the right satellite dish, maybe. But that's a question for a whole different guide.
