Calling All Cub Fans (Just Kidding, You Magnificent Tigers!) - How to Catch Tonight's Game
Die-hard Detroit Tigers fan? You bleed orange and black, your spirit animal is a bengal tiger with a killer swing, and you wouldn't miss a game for the world (except maybe for a plate of Comerica Park's famous Coney dogs - priorities, my friend). But with cable packages these days more confusing than Miguel Cabrera's batting stance, how do you actually tune in to cheer on your boys (or gals, if they've finally gotten on board with a women's baseball league - a guy can dream!) tonight?
Fear not, fellow feline fanatic! This handy guide will have you watching Miguel mash dingers and Tarik Skubal baffle batters like a magician pulling pigeons from thin air (though hopefully with less, uh, "fowl play").
QuickTip: Stop scrolling fast, start reading slow.

| How Do I Watch The Detroit Tigers Game Tonight |
Cable or Cord Cutter? No Problem!
There are two main ways to snag the game:
Tip: Look for examples to make points easier to grasp.
Cable Crusader: If you're rocking a classic cable subscription, Bally Sports Detroit is your home base. Check your local listings to make sure you're on the right channel, grab your favorite Tigers jersey (or that lucky rally cap that hasn't been washed since 2012 - we won't judge), and settle in for some baseball bliss. Bally Sports also has a handy app, so you can catch the game on your phone or tablet if you're on the go (just be prepared to explain to your boss why you're dabbing at your eyes with one hand while yelling "YES!" at your phone).
Cord Cutter Chaos: Ditched cable and living the streaming life? No worries! There are a bunch of streaming services that carry Bally Sports Detroit, including fuboTV, DirecTV Stream, and Hulu + Live TV. Just sign up, find the channel, and you're good to go (though some may require a subscription).
Bonus Round: Apple TV+ to the Rescue!
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.

For a limited time, Apple TV+ is showing some Friday Night Baseball games, including some featuring the Tigers! Check their schedule to see if tonight's game is included and snag yourself a free trial if you haven't already (because hey, free baseball is the best kind of baseball).
Tip: Don’t skim — absorb.
Alright, enough with the jibber jabber, how do I actually watch the game?
Here's a quick rundown:
- Cable: Tune in to Bally Sports Detroit (check local listings for channel number).
- Streaming: Sign up for a service that carries Bally Sports Detroit (fuboTV, DirecTV Stream, Hulu + Live TV are some options).
- Apple TV+ (limited time): Check their schedule and snag a free trial if it applies.
How To... FAQs
- How much will it cost? Cable and streaming service prices vary, so do some quick research to find the best fit for your budget.
- What if I'm out of town? Many of the streaming services mentioned above allow you to watch live TV even if you're not in the Detroit area (check their terms and conditions).
- I don't have any of those services! Don't despair! There might be local sports bars showing the game, or you could try the old-fashioned method and, you know, actually go to the game (tickets may apply).
- Is there a radio broadcast? You betcha! The Tigers radio network has all the games, so you can listen in on the action no matter where you are.
- Help! I'm stuck at work and can't watch the game! Fear not, fellow fan! Most sports apps and websites will have live updates, scores, and highlights, so you can stay on top of the action even if you're stuck in a meeting (but maybe mute your phone so your boss doesn't suspect anything).
There you have it! Now you're all set to cheer on the Tigers and hopefully witness another victory. Let's go Detroit!
