You can usually watch a New York Yankees game through a mix of regional sports networks, national sports channels, and streaming services, depending on where you live and which specific game is on that day.

Main ways to watch

  • YES Network (local NY area)
    • Primary home for most regular-season Yankees games.
* Available via many cable/satellite providers in the New York market and some live TV streaming services that carry regional sports networks.
  • National TV channels
    • Some games move to national broadcasts on FOX, FS1, ESPN, MLB Network, and TBS , especially prime-time, rivalry, and postseason-type matchups.
* These channels are typically available through cable, satellite, or live TV streaming bundles like YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, etc.
  • Streaming-only games
    • A growing number of Yankees games are exclusive to Amazon Prime Video , particularly for viewers in the Yankees’ home territory.
* Certain Friday games can be exclusive to **Apple TV+** as part of MLB’s streaming package.
  • Out-of-market options
    • If you live outside the YES Network region, Yankees regional broadcasts are often blacked out unless you use MLB.TV or a comparable out-of-market package (such as MLB Extra Innings via cable/satellite).
