Cable Cutters Rejoice (Kinda)
Let's be honest, cable is as exciting as watching paint dry. But fear not, cord-cutters! There's hope.
QuickTip: Read line by line if it’s complex.
- Streaming Services: Your new best friends. Platforms like FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, and YouTube TV offer a decent selection of sports channels. Just remember, you'll probably end up paying almost as much as cable eventually. Hey, at least you can binge-watch your favorite shows too!
- MLB.TV: For the die-hard fan who lives outside of Houston. It's like having a front-row seat to every game, except you're probably sitting on your couch in your underwear.
Traditional TV: The Good Old Days
If you're lucky enough to still have cable, congrats! You're living in the past. But hey, at least you can catch the Astros on:
Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.
- Space City Home Network: Your local go-to for Astros games. Unless you live in a black hole, you should be able to find it.
- National Broadcasts: Keep an eye on ESPN, FOX, FS1, and TBS for those big games. Just don't get too excited about seeing them play on a Tuesday night.
Important Note: Blackouts
Cue dramatic music
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.

This is where things get a little tricky. MLB.TV has these pesky blackouts. Basically, if you live in the Houston area, you can't watch your local team on MLB.TV. It's like having a kid and not being allowed to see them. Heartbreaking.
QuickTip: Skim for bold or italicized words.
