How to Watch Bally Sports Kansas City Without Cable

by Jim Kimble / Updated: March 24, 2022

You can still watch Bally Sports Kansas City without the long-term commitment of cable TV. 

But streaming Kansas City Royals games isn’t as easy as it used to be when there were regional Fox Sports networks.

Now, DIRECTV STREAM is the only option for watching Royals games without a cable or satellite provider. 

DIRECTV STREAM does cost more than competing services that live stream ESPN, or local channels such as NBC.

The Choice plan, which carries 90+ channels, is $89.99 per month.  

So if you’re looking to cut the cord, but still watch Kansas City Royals St. Louis Blues games, you should consider whether the pros of watching Bally Sports Kansas City without cable outweigh its cons.

DIRECTV STREAM still has one advantage over paying for DISH or Spectrum. You can subscribe month to month and cancel whenever you want. 

You can sign up for a free 5-day trial without any obligations.

Subscribers can get three months of HBO Max, Cinemax, Showtime and EPIX for free before the regular rate kicks in.

The Choice bundle has a wide variety of sports channels including Big Ten Network and SEC Network.

All of your local ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, Telemundo and Univision channels are included. And you get top cable TV channels such as TNT, History, CNN and A&E.

What games are on Bally Sports Kansas City?

Bally Sports Kansas City carries regular season games of the Kansas City Royals, and produces the pre-game and post-game show Royals Live.

Bally Sports Kansas City is only available throughout Kansas, Iowa, western and central Missouri and eastern Nebraska.

The channel also televises select sporting events from Bally Sports Midwest, including the NHL’s St. Louis Blues, basketball and baseball. 

During college football season, you can also watch Kansas Jayhawks and Kansas State Wildcats games.

Stream Bally Sports Kansas City live on Roku, Fire TV Stick

DIRECTV STREAM works on Roku, Google Chromecast, Amazon Fire TV devices, Apple TV, Samsung Smart TVs, smartphones and tablets. 

Subscriptions run month to month so you can cancel whenever you want. You can look over the different channel lineups before deciding whether to sign up. 

Why can’t I stream Bally Sports Kansas City on Hulu or YouTube TV?

There was a time when regional Bally Sports channels were available on a number of live TV streaming services. That included Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV, fuboTV and YouTube TV.

These streaming services have yet to strike a long-term agreement with Sinclair Broadcast Group since the company took ownership of 21 regional Fox Sports networks in 2019.
