where can i watch the world baseball classic 2026
You can watch the 2026 World Baseball Classic on FOX Sports channels and their associated streaming platforms, plus various regional broadcasters depending on where you live.
Main ways to watch (US and Canada)
In the United States, all 47 games are carried across the FOX Sports family: FOX, FS1, FS2, FOX Deportes, the FOX Sports App, Tubi and the dedicated FOX One streaming service. Games on FOX, FS1 and FS2 are also available via live TV streaming services that include FOX networks, such as YouTube TV, Fubo, DirecTV Stream and similar bundles.
In Canada, English-language coverage is on Sportsnet, while French-language coverage is on TVA Sports. These channels can be watched either via traditional cable/satellite or through each network’s authenticated streaming apps where available.
International streaming and TV
Major international rights are centralized but split by region. Examples include Netflix Japan (all games in Japanese), tvN/tvN Sports/TVING and national broadcasters in Korea, and ESPN for Oceania and pan–Latin America (often with English, Spanish or Portuguese feeds).
Other territories have specific partners: in Taiwan (ELTA, EBC, Videoland, TTV), across much of Southeast Asia via SpoTV, and in countries like Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico via local sports networks. There is also a global in-flight and at-sea feed through Sport 24, so you can watch on some planes and cruise ships.

Extra tips and latest context
The 2026 World Baseball Classic runs in March, with pool play leading into quarterfinals, semifinals and a championship game in Miami. In 2026, FOX again holds exclusive US rights, which is why essentially every legal stream in the US goes through a FOX platform or a service that carries FOX channels.
If you are unsure which broadcaster applies to you, check MLB’s official “Where to Watch 2026 World Baseball Classic” page for your country, then search that channel or platform in your local app store or TV guide. Also keep in mind blackout rules and regional restrictions can apply on some streaming services, so verify availability with your specific provider before game time.
