How to watch the 2024 World Series: Streaming guide to Yankees vs Dodgers

Where to watch the World Series

Every World Series game is broadcast on Fox. Below is a glance at the streaming services offering Fox: 

Watch on DIRECTV STREAM: Your home for all sports

DIRECTV STREAM is one of the best ways to stream the action. There are four different package options available with DIRECTV STREAM. The Entertainment package offers a wealth of news, sports and entertainment programming. Most importantly, you can stream every World Series game live on Fox. 

If you’re an avid baseball fan, consider upgrading your package next season. The next tier, the Choice plan, offers regional sports channels like FanDuel Sports Networks. In turn, you’ll have more access to local games. Each DIRECTV STREAM plan has unlimited DVR, allowing you to record every game of the October classic.

Watch on Fubo: The sports fan’s streaming service

Fubo is a sports fan’s dream. There's plans with Fubo that offer every channel you want, such as ESPN, Fox and FanDuel Sports Networks.

On top of that, every Fubo plan offers unlimited Cloud DVR. It is a significant bonus, allowing you to record as many baseball games as possible. The platform also allows you to stream from up to 10 devices at time when at home, plus 3 on the go.

Watch on Hulu: World Series streaming with a side of binge-worthy shows

Hulu’s live TV package is one of the more unique options available. Along with having access to many channels, including Fox, you can package it with the Disney Bundle. The Disney Bundle includes live and on-demand content from Hulu, Disney Plus and ESPN Plus. ESPN Plus members can also stream sports documentaries and read premium articles on ESPN.com. 

Circling back to its live TV service, there is much to like. Stream sports on Fox, ESPN, Fox Sports 1 and the MLB Network. With unlimited DVR, you can record as much content as you want whenever you delight. The platform offers something for everyone in your household.

Watch on Sling TV: A budget-friendly way to catch the action

If you want to save money on streaming services, Sling TV is a smart alternative. The platform offers affordable plans with access to sports networks like ESPN and Fox Sports 1. Each plan also has 50 hours of DVR, or you can upgrade to 200 for a small additional fee. 

While affordable, Sling TV doesn’t offer local channels in every area. It means if you’re not in one of these locations, you won’t receive Fox. The good news is you can buy a digital antenna to stream the World Series and other local content. Even that cost, combined with Sling TV’s prices, will help you save money compared to other options.

Watch on YouTube TV: Unlimited DVR for every game

YouTube TV creates the ultimate sports bar experience at home. With its multiview, you can stream the World Series with other sports concurrently. The service also lets you join games live or catch key highlights before catching up.

The platform offers a ton of sports channels. You can stream content on Fox, ESPN, Fox Sports 1, the MLB Network and many others. The only drawback is YouTube TV doesn’t offer the FanDuel Sports Networks, meaning during the regular season it can be difficult to catch more games live. Still, YouTube TV’s exceptional channel offerings, affordable price and viewing features set it apart.
