red sox where to watch
You can watch Boston Red Sox games in 2026 through a mix of regional sports networks, national TV channels, and streaming services, with different options depending on whether you live in New England or out of market.
Main ways to watch
- Local New England TV: Most regular-season Red Sox games in the Boston home market air on NESN , the team’s regional sports network.
- National TV games: Selected games are carried nationally on ESPN, Fox, FS1, MLB Network, and TBS throughout the MLB season.
- NBC/Peacock games: A small number of 2026 Red Sox games (about five) are slated to be on NBC and also stream on Peacock , NBC’s subscription streaming service.
Streaming options
- NESN 360 (local streaming):
- Lets fans in the NESN territory stream Red Sox games live without traditional cable, via a dedicated NESN 360 app and subscription.
* If NESN is in your cable/satellite package, you may already have access to log in to NESN 360.
- Cable-replacement streaming services (national channels):
- Services like Hulu + Live TV, Fubo, DirecTV streaming, and similar “live TV” apps carry some combination of ESPN, Fox, FS1, TBS, and MLB Network, so they work for nationally televised Red Sox games.
* Availability of each channel depends on the specific service and plan you choose.
- Out-of-market streaming (if you don’t live near Boston):
- If you are outside the Boston TV market, you can stream most Red Sox games via MLB.TV , which offers live and on-demand out-of-market broadcasts.
* MLB.TV subscriptions can be bought yearly (all teams) or monthly, but local blackout rules still apply for some games.
Radio and audio-only
- Local radio: Red Sox games air on 93.7 WEEI FM in Boston, plus a network of affiliates around New England.
- National audio: You can listen via the MLB app and SiriusXM for live radio broadcasts.
