MLB Spring Training 2024 is underway, and excitement continues to build across both the Cactus League in Arizona and the Florida Grapefruit League.
Fans are already enjoying a thrilling preseason, with teams from both leagues showcasing their talent and preparing for the upcoming season. Since the world of streaming sports is so volatile, this guide focuses solely on MLB Spring Training games for March in the run up to Opening Day on March 28.
YouTube TV and Hulu with Live TV count regional NBC Sports networks among their channel lineups, making every televised Spring Training game accessible without the need of a cable subscription.
During the month of February, there are 48 games that will be televised or available via streaming service.
The February schedule spans from February 22, 2024, to February 29, 2024, featuring multiple games each day. There will be many more games in March in the run up to Opening Day on March 28.
Many games are broadcast on TV channels, including ESPN, NBC Sports Chicago (NBCSCH), Marquee Sports Network (MARQ), Bally Sports Ohio (BSOH), Bally Sports Great Lakes (BSGL), Sportsnet, and others. Specific games are also available on local radio broadcasts, and MLB.com audio streams.
Among the five live TV streaming services that carry spring training games, only DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo and YouTube TV are offering free trials that last about a week. You must cancel service if you don’t want to be billed for your first month of service.
