The schedule can change, and no single channel or subscription necessarily carries every game.
Find the next game and its broadcast
- Open MLB’s postseason schedule.
- Find your team’s next matchup and note the opponent, date, start time, and broadcaster listed for that game.
- Check the schedule again on game day. MLB says it is subject to change, so don’t rely on an older listing when planning how to watch.
Follow the outlet named for that particular game. The 2026 postseason uses multiple broadcast outlets, so a channel or service that carries one matchup may not carry the next.
Choose a way to watch or listen
Your location, TV provider, and the game’s listed network determine which live options work. Use this guide to identify the right route:
| Option | Who it applies to | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Listed TV network or service | Viewers whose provider or service carries the game’s listed outlet | Check the schedule for each game; the postseason does not have one universal broadcaster. MLB schedule |
| MLB.TV live viewing in the U.S. | U.S. viewers with a participating pay-TV provider | Authentication through a participating provider that carries the game’s listed network is required. An MLB.TV subscription alone does not establish live access. MLB.TV access information |
| MLB.TV for Wild Card games carried by NBC/Peacock | Viewers looking for live MLB.TV coverage of those Wild Card games | MLB says NBC/Peacock-broadcast Wild Card games are not available live on MLB.TV. Check the game listing for the broadcast route. MLB.TV access information |
| MLB.TV live viewing outside the U.S. | International viewers, subject to local restrictions | MLB describes live games as available internationally except in Canada, without authentication; territory-specific restrictions still apply. Check availability where you are. MLB.TV access information MLB blackout and availability information |
| ESPN Radio | Listeners who want audio coverage | ESPN Radio provides live national coverage of all 2026 postseason games. This is audio, not video; MLB’s announcement does not identify a local station for each listener. MLB announcement |
| MLB.TV full-game archive | Viewers catching up after a game | MLB says full-game archives are available on demand 90 minutes after the game ends. This is a replay option, not live coverage. MLB.TV access information |
Check your access before first pitch
If you’re watching in the U.S.
Before depending on MLB.TV for a live game, confirm that you have a participating pay-TV provider and that it carries the network shown on the schedule. The requirement applies to the listed network; subscribing to MLB.TV by itself is not proof that you can watch that broadcast there. For NBC/Peacock-broadcast Wild Card games, MLB.TV does not provide live viewing.

If you’re outside the U.S.
MLB describes live international access, without authentication, except in Canada. That broad statement does not guarantee access in every territory: local restrictions may affect individual games. Check MLB’s blackout and available-games information for your location.
If you can’t watch live
For audio, tune in to ESPN Radio’s national postseason coverage; a portable AM/FM radio can be one way to listen where the signal is available. For a video replay, MLB says the full-game archive becomes available on demand 90 minutes after the game ends.
