How to Watch The Entire MLB Playoffs 2022 Without Cable For Free or Super Cheap
October baseball is here and it is so exciting to watch the MLB playoffs every year. You never know which team is going to get hot and just win it all! I’m here to show you how to stream every game, either for free or for super cheap.
Now, the MLB playoffs will start on October 7th and it will go all the way through November 5th.
Initially, I thought I found the perfect way on how to stream this bad boy for absolutely free, and that was through MLB.TV and you can get access through Amazon. There’s a way to get it free on Amazon, but after reading the terms and conditions, it does not include the postseason, which is super unfortunate.
So we scrapped that idea and what we landed on was streaming bundles. Now we’re talking about YouTube TV, we’re talking about Hulu+ Live TV, we’re talking about Sling TV, and lastly we’re talking about Philo. There’s a lot of different ones. You’re going to need one of these now, the reason that you’re going to need a bundle and not just a specific streaming service is because the games are going to be aired on a lot of different networks. Some playoff games are going to be aired on ESPN, some playoff games are going to be aired on Fox, other ones are going to be on FS1. And finally, the last one is some are going to be aired on TBS. So there’s a lot of networks that need to be covered and the only way to do that is if you have a streaming bundle, you got something that includes all of it.
Now, my personal favorite streaming bundle is YouTube TV. Now it is a fantastic service. It is super easy to use, very high quality as far as the resolution wise. It’s just it’s very easy to navigate. It is definitely one of my absolute favorites for something like this. If you do get access to YouTube TV, you’re going to get ESPN, you’re going to get Fox, you’re going to get TBS, you’re going to get FS1, and you’re going to get the MLB network. So right now, YouTube, TV has an offer of $10 off. It’s a streaming service. So normally it’s $65 a month. So right now it’s only $55 for the month and you’re only going to need one month of this service because the entire MLB playoffs is going to be compacted into one single month.
Now they do have a seven day free trial, which you can absolutely take advantage of but unfortunately that is the only way that you can get YouTube TV for free is through their free seven day trial. Now, all of these services that I mentioned, you can’t you can get a free trial of an essentially stream everything for free.
Now, that is a pretty big hassle, but it can save money. You saved like 50 bucks a hassle. 50 bucks? I don’t know. It is up to you. Now, the second one that I want to go over is Hulu + Live TV. Hulu is number two in this this whole thing. Now, just like YouTube TV, it is a very easy to use platform. The resolution is great. The amount of channels that they give you access to is just awesome. There’s so many channels, but they give you access to the most important channels, which is ESPN, Fox, TBS, FS1, but they do not give you access to MLB network.
Now normally Hulu Plus, live television is $69.99, but right now they’re running a $20 off for the next three months. So if you wanted to get this and keep it for the for the long haul, you will only have to pay $49.99 instead of the normal price point of $69.99. Great deal. They also have a free trial of 7 days!
Now, the next one I want to talk about is Sling TV.
Now, Sling TV is as number three. It’s the third tier, but it still does a fantastic job of being a streaming TV bundle. They have great resolution. It’s very easy to use and they also have a pretty fantastic deal. Now, I don’t know how many people this is going to apply to, but if you have Boost Mobile, they cover your Sling TV.
So essentially you’re going to get this for free. Not only that, they also throw in Showtime. So you get Sling TV and Showtime if you are a customer of Boost Mobile. Now, I’m not, but I kind of wish I was at this point.
Now, there is one other way to watch. Not not the whole pie, not the whole pie of the MLB playoffs, but just just a slice. That is to get a TV antenna! Now these range from I want to say, $20 all the way up to over $100. But there is one that I absolutely recommend and it’s around the the $40, $50 range and it’s great!
It gives you access to FOX, CBS, ABC, etc. FOX is going to have the most amount of MLB playoff games, including the World Series. So it gives you access to all your local channels and it’s also 4K compatible, which is fantastic. So you don’t have to go the streaming route.
All right. That is all I got!
