How to watch MLB games in 2026: Netflix and NBC added to lineup

Major League Baseball is gearing up for an action-packed 2026 season, spreading the joy of America’s favorite pastime across various national TV networks. As a fan, you won’t want to miss a single inning, so keep those remotes close and your Roku sticks at the ready.

Netflix kicks things off with an opening night showdown between the Giants and the Yankees on Wednesday, March 25. If you’re into the crack of the bat more than the drama of “Bridgerton,” mark your calendar for their coverage of the Home Run Derby in July and the “Field Of Dreams” game in August.

NBC is making a triumphant return to all things baseball, starting on Thursday, March 26. Get ready for a doubleheader featuring the Pirates and the Mets, followed by the Dodgers facing off against the Diamondbacks. And don’t forget, NBC will be your new home for Sunday Night Baseball, beginning this season.

Apple TV is back in the game with a Friday night doubleheader lineup that includes matchups like the Angels vs. Astros and Guardians vs. Mariners. It’s the perfect way to kick off your weekend with some hardball action.

Fox Sports will continue to bring you Saturday afternoon games on both Fox and FS1, so you can catch all the excitement as the season unfolds. And remember, NBC and Peacock will be your go-to destination for the wild card series come September, filling the void left by ESPN.

So, whether you’re streaming on Netflix, tuning in to NBC, catching the action on Apple TV, or watching on Fox Sports, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy MLB games in 2026. Grab some peanuts and cracker jacks, settle in, and get ready for a season full of bat flips and home run trots.
