You can watch Los Angeles Angels vs. Houston Astros on a mix of national TV, regional sports networks, and streaming services, depending on the specific game date and your location.

Key ways to watch

  • National broadcasts (no local RSN needed)
    Some Angels–Astros games are picked up for national TV, typically on ESPN, FS1, Apple TV, or Peacock.
* Example for Opening Day 2026: one Angels–Astros matchup is listed on a national feed (Duel/Space City–type regional plus MLB.TV) with streaming via Fubo.
* When a game is “exclusive national” (like many Apple TV or Peacock games), it will not appear on the usual regional networks.
  • Houston Astros viewers (Astros territory)
    • Primary channel: Space City Home Network (regional TV home of the Astros).
* Streaming option: **SCHN+ app** , which carries the same Astros broadcasts without needing a cable or satellite subscription (but you must be in the Astros TV territory).
* Many games are also available through live‑TV streaming bundles (e.g., services that carry Space City Home Network or offer Fubo trials, subject to regional availability).
  • Los Angeles Angels viewers (Angels territory)
    • Regional TV: FanDuel Sports Network West (channels like DirecTV 692, Spectrum 320, Cox 64 in Orange County) for standard Angels telecasts.
* Direct streaming: **Angels.TV** (MLB’s DTC service for Angels), which lets in‑market fans stream regular‑season Angels games with no local blackouts, aside from national exclusives.
* Angels.TV can be accessed via the MLB app for in‑market streaming in 2026.
  • Out‑of‑market fans (not in Astros or Angels home territories)
    • MLB.TV All Teams or single‑team packages will carry most Angels–Astros games, as long as you are outside both clubs’ blackout regions.
* A live‑TV streaming bundle like Fubo can also work if it carries the relevant national network (ESPN, FS1, etc.) that has picked up that specific game.
  • One recent concrete example (March 26, 2026)
    • Game: Angels at Astros, Daikin Park, Opening Day‑type matchup.
* Listed viewing info:
  * Time: 4:00 PM ET.
  * Channels: a regional “Space City”–style network plus MLB.TV, and streaming via **Fubo** (free‑trial mentioned).
  * Apple TV also advertises a live stream of this Angels at Astros game on March 26, 2026.
