You Don't Need a Crystal Ball to See the Brewers Play (But Binoculars Might Help if You're Sneaking In)
Ah, the Milwaukee Brewers. A team steeped in tradition, fueled by cheese curds, and capable of making even the most stoic fan erupt in a celebratory "Yeeeeeehaw!" But let's face it, getting to American Family Field every game isn't exactly realistic (unless you happen to be best friends with the grounds crew). Fear not, fellow baseball fanatic, because there are more ways to watch the Crew play than there are sausage races in a season (and that's saying something).
Cable? Cut the Cord? We've Got You Covered
For the traditionalists out there, there's the tried-and-true method: cable. Tune in to Bally Sports, the official TV home of the Brewers, and you'll be treated to the dulcet tones of Bob Uecker and company for most regular-season games. But hey, we get it, cable can be a bit of a dinosaur these days.
For the cord-cutters amongst us, there are a couple of aces up your sleeve:
- Bally Sports+: This streaming service is your one-stop shop for all things Brewers, without the need for a pesky cable package. Plus, there's a free trial, so you can test it out before you commit. Just be sure to cancel before they catch you cheering too loudly and realize you're not wearing pants (we've all been there).
- Streaming Services: Platforms like Hulu + Live TV and YouTube TV offer Bally Sports in their channel lineup, so you can catch the Brewers alongside all your other favorite teams (because, let's face it, we all have those "other" teams... but the Brewers are definitely number one).
Beyond the Bally Box: National Broadcasts
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Now, some games might be on national channels like FOX, FS1, ESPN, TBS, or even Apple TV+. These are like finding a hidden stash of cheese curds in the fridge - a delightful surprise! But here's the thing, you might need to check the schedule beforehand to avoid a "Dangnabbit, it's blacked out!" situation.
Bonus Round: MLB.TV (But Read the Fine Print)
MLB.TV is a great option for catching every single Brewers game, no matter where you are. However, there's a catch (there's always a catch, isn't there?). If you live in the Milwaukee blackout zone, you're out of luck. But hey, if you're traveling or live on a remote island populated entirely by baseball fans and exotic birds, then MLB.TV might be your new best friend.
QuickTip: Go back if you lost the thread.
