How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies online without cable in 2025: Stream the Fightin' Phils all season long

What channels are Philadelphia Phillies games on this season?

If you’re tuning in from the City of Brotherly Love, you can catch most Phillies games on NBC Sports Philadelphia, the area’s regional sports network (RSN). However, select games will air on NBC 10, the city’s NBC affiliate. The team also has some nationally televised games this year, which will appear on ESPN, Fox, Fox Sports 1 (FS1), MLB Network or TBS.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on DIRECTV STREAM

While DIRECTV STREAM is the usual pick for MLB fans, they notably don't provide regional coverage for the Phillies. While they might not have NBC Sports Philadelphia, they've got you covered for all national broadcasts, so you won't miss any big games. Starting with the Entertainment plan, you'll get the channels FOX, ESPN, FS1, and TBS, but you'll need the Choice plan for MLB Network.

While DIRECTV STREAM is an expensive streamer, its value matches the price tag. With varied areas of entertainment, sports coverage, unlimited DVR, and simultaneous streaming, DIRECTV STREAM is a great option, especially with their free trial offering.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on Fubo

The sports-centric streaming platform Fubo is one of the best options for Phillies fans thanks to its regional coverage and substantial national coverage. All of Fubo's plans include ESPN, FOX, FS1, and NBC, but you'll need the Elite plan for access to MLB Network. 

The only downside of Fubo is that their plans don’t carry TBS. However, the Phillies only have one regular season game scheduled on that network this season, meaning its omission shouldn't affect your decision. Additionally, you’ll get access to other sports channels (like beIN SPORTS and NFL Network) and unlimited Cloud DVR storage.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on Hulu + Live TV

Hulu + Live TV is the top pick for Philadelphia baseball fans due to its complete coverage of Phillies games. Like Fubo, this platform includes NBC Sports Philadelphia in all of its live TV plans. Its ad-free and ad-supported plans also include ESPN, Fox, FS1, MLB Network, and TBS, giving you all the channels you need to stream Phillies games this season.

In addition to these networks, Hulu + Live TV plans include a variety of other sports channels, such as CBS Sports Network, ESPNEWS, Fox Sports 2 (FS2) and NFL Network.  Plus, your Hulu + Live TV plan gives you access to the Disney Bundle, which includes ESPN Plus, Disney Plus and Hulu’s on-demand library of original TV shows and movies.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on Sling TV

Popular with budget-conscious cord-cutters, Sling TV is geared towards casual fans who are fine with limited coverage. Sling Orange has ESPN and TBS, while Sling Blue subscribers in the Philadelphia area will receive NBC, Fox, FS1 and TBS. Sling Orange & Blue comes with all of these channels, plus you can buy the Sports Extra add-on to get MLB Network.

Depending on your plan, you’ll also get other sports channels, such as ESPN2, MotorTrend and NFL Network. Unfortunately, none of Fubo's plans carry NBC Sports Philadelphia, and there is only 50 hours of cloud DVR included, though you can upgrade to 200 hours for $5 per month.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on YouTube TV

YouTube TV is another top streaming service worth considering if you’re a Phillies fan. Its base plan offers all of the major local channels (including Fox and NBC), as well as ESPN, FS1, TBS and NBC Sports Philadelphia. Unfortunately, MLB Network is not available through YouTube TV, though it can be purchased separately.

When you sign up for YouTube TV, you’ll gain access to several other sports channels, including NBA TV and NFL Network. YouTube TV plans also have unlimited DVR space, giving you the freedom to replay games and other programs on your own time.

How to watch the Philadelphia Phillies on Apple TV+

Friday Night Baseball on Apple TV+ has returned to provide viewers with a doubleheader of marquee matchups every weekend. The Phillies will play the Mets on June 20th on Friday Night Baseball, which is exclusively available through Apple TV+. With an Apple TV+ subscription, you can tune into these MLB games and watch original content on Apple TV+.

How to watch Philadelphia Phillies out-of-market games with MLB TV

Outside of Philadelphia, you can’t watch the Phillies on NBC Sports Philadelphia. Fortunately, though, you can purchase an MLB.TV subscription to get access to every out-of-market Phillies game. For even more live and on-demand MLB content, you can upgrade your subscription to stream every out-of-market game from around the league. You can sign up for MLB.TV on the MLB’s website or through select streaming platforms, including Fubo.
