It’s that time of year again—when the rumble of trains arrives at the 161 St. stop, when right-field roll calls echo, and when John Sterling’s iconic impressions fill the air. The New York Yankees? “Da New York Yankees!”
Following this franchise weaves a pinstripe narrative throughout the history of baseball. They’ve been known as the Evil Empire, “the luckiest men on the face of the earth,” and everything in between. However, keeping up with all 162 games has become increasingly challenging due to the ever-evolving streaming options and frustrating blackout restrictions.
Think of this as your guide to the constantly shifting broadcast landscape. Don’t forget to keep up with the Yankees in your Athletic feed. Chris Kirschner and Brendan Kuty are on the beat for us—they’re among the finest in the expansive world of the Yanks.
How to Stream Regional Yankees Broadcasts In-Market
Fubo (free trial available)
Fubo is a streaming service designed for those who have cut the cable cord, offering both local and national channels along with optional sports packages. You can stream any game aired on YES, ESPN, Fox, or MLB Network through Fubo (details below). However, TBS games are not included.
Requirements for watching these games: To get started, you’ll need a Fubo subscription, which is the best option for streaming MLB without cable. Most users find the Pro plan, priced at $84.99 per month, sufficient. If you prefer 4K streaming, the cost rises to $94.99. For additional game access, you can add MLB.TV for $29.99 a month, which allows streaming of all out-of-market games, or opt for the Sports Lite package, which includes MLB Network, NBA TV, and the Tennis Channel for $9.99 a month.
YES
Fans in the New York tri-state area can enjoy the familiar voices of Michael Kay and his team through Fubo, DirecTV Stream, or the à la carte Gotham Sports option. The YES package is available for $200 annually (which also includes the Brooklyn Nets), while a full package with MSG, featuring the New York Knicks, Rangers, and Islanders, as well as the New Jersey Devils and Buffalo Sabres, costs $320. Hulu’s live package has recently dropped YES, and it has been unavailable on YouTube TV for several years. Local viewers using the MLB.TV app will encounter a frustrating blackout message.
Requirements for watching these games: Fubo, DirecTV Stream, Gotham Sports
Amazon Prime
This season, Amazon will stream 21 Yankees games, primarily on Wednesday nights. These broadcasts will feature the same YES production but will only be accessible through Prime. As one New Yorker noted, “The Times They Are a-Changin’.”

How to Watch Regional Broadcasts Outside Your Market

With the MLB.TV subscription, you can enjoy all regular-season games, although national broadcasts and in-market games for your area are excluded. For a one-time fee of $150, you gain access to every game and team on MLB.TV. Additionally, Fubo offers an MLB.TV add-on for $29.99 per month.
How to Watch the National TV Games
ESPN
Since 1990, the league has had a partnership with ESPN, but that will come to an end this fall. Yes, the network known for its iconic music is stepping away from its remaining baseball broadcasts. This season, you can still catch select primetime Yankees games, starting with the first Brewers matchup on Opening Day. The Sunday finale of the Subway Series is typically featured on ESPN. Commentators Karl Ravech and Jon Sciambi are usually behind the mic, along with former Yankee and frequent YES Network analyst David Cone, as well as Buster Olney and Eduardo Pérez. Keep an eye out for Sundays, particularly for “Sunday Night Baseball.”
Fox
Every year, there seems to be a Yankees-Red Sox game on Fox, and this year, we have three scheduled (June 7 and 14, and August 21). Additionally, New York will face the LA Dodgers in a World Series rematch on May 31. On Fox, you can expect to hear Joe Davis or Adam Amin calling the game, along with former players turned analysts like John Smoltz and A. J. Pierzynski. Fox often features games on Saturdays as well.
TBS
This is the action for Tuesday. The first-half schedule features several games marked with “NYY”: April 1 against the Diamondbacks, May 6 versus the Padres, June 3 facing Cleveland, and June 10 against Kansas City. Brian Anderson will be covering the TBS Tuesday games, while Pedro Martínez, known to fans as the son of the Yankees, will be part of the studio show alongside former Yankees player Curtis Granderson. You can also stream TBS games on Max.
Roku
The vibrant purple city now offers “MLB Sunday Leadoff” games without any blackout restrictions. The Yankees will make one appearance here on June 22 for a morning game against the Baltimore Orioles.
Apple TV+
In a similar vein, there’s one national broadcast for the team on Apple TV’s Friday night lineup. This will kick off the Yankees-Dodgers series. This World Series rivalry perfectly showcases our primetime schedule: Apple TV on Friday, Fox on Saturday, ESPN on Sunday, with local viewers facing blackout restrictions otherwise.
