The Short Answer  Bally Sports Midwest is now FanDuel Sports Network Midwest and can be streamed on Fubo and DIRECTV STREAM

Bally Sports Midwest officially became FanDuel Sports Network Midwest in October 2024. Diamond Sports Group, which no longer exists as it filed for bankruptcy, ended its agreement with Bally Sports while retaining the rights and partnerships for many Bally Sports Midwest broadcasts. 

While Diamond is now Main Street Sports Group, and Bally Sports Midwest is now the FanDuel Sports Network (FDSN), the corporate rebranding will not affect your ability to catch the St. Louis Cardinals and St. Louis Blues for the peak of the 2025 MLB season. Also, the FanDuel Sports Network shares rights with FanDuel Sports Network Indiana and FanDuel Sports Network Southeast to stream some games for the Indiana Pacers and Memphis Grizzlies.

FDSN is a powerhouse for your Midwest MLB sports streaming, and we've got you set with how to catch this network online and without cable in 2025. 

*Editor note: Bally Sports Networks rebranded to FanDuel Sports Networks on October 21, 2024.
