What are the (legal) options for watching Angel games on TV this year?

[Taylor]

Last year, it was either cable or AT&T TV. Any news on how they'll screw us make games available to watch on TV this year?

Buying a ticket to the stadium

Probably just ATT and Spectrum. Both suck.

What are the illegal options? Asking for a friend.

According to this we have Direct TV Stream as an option now. Hooray.

Have a friend sneak a camera into the stadium and livestream the game for you.

I believe it's on Hulu live

Nope. It's not on Hulu or YouTube TV, either.  Only options are Spectrum and DirecTV/DirecTV Stream. Bally Sports apparently still hasn't worked out the direct-to-consumer option for baseball on its app.

And it sucks, ended up bailing and going back to Youtube TV.

sucks we won’t have games this year

[Angels 1961]

Since 1961 I've watched games on my transistor radio. 

[greginpsca]

To be able to get that streaming, you have to have the most expensive plan on Direct/ AT&T.

[DCAngelsFan]

T-Mobile subscribers have gotten the mlb.tv subs for free for a few years now

So, if you have a friend who has t-mobile and doesn't watch baseball, and know how to use a vpn, that's an option.

 

[aznhockeyguy]

You can go to a sports bar/sports themed local restaurant and watch it there. 

[well_red]

Over the past year+, Sling, Hulu, and Youtube have all lost Bally Sports West, after contracts ended and they couldn't agree to a new one.  I would expect the same to happen to ATT/DirectTV streaming service, whenever their contract runs out.  Fuck Sinclair I hope they go bankrupt.

Here  the last article I read on the subject:

This is the one nice thing about being an Angels fan in Nor Cal, no blackouts.

Why would you be interested in the legal ones when the illegal ones give you baseball without the nauseating feeling of supporting a bunch of scumbags?
