How to watch Dodgers vs. Nationals NLDS

Can’t make it to Dodger Stadium today and you plan to watch the game on television. You can catch it exclusively on TBS as they are the cable network that is broadcasting both the National League Divisional and Championship series.

If you have a basic cable or satellite package, you more than likely have TBS available to you. You can also stream it (with authentication) on www.tbs.com and their Watch TBS App without any blackout restrictions.

However, unless you live outside of the U.S., none of these games are available through your MLB.TV subscription. If you are an international subscriber, you should be able to view games through your subscription.

But there are non-cable/satellite streaming services that will have the MLB playoffs. YouTube TV has all of the outlets (TBS, Fox, FS1 and MLB Network) for the major league postseason, if you have never signed up, there is a free one-week trial and then it costs $50 a month.

Fubo TV also has TBS along with FS1 and in most markets you will get the local FOX affiliate showing the AL or World Series game. After a one-week free trial, it costs $55 a month for the service. If you use this link to subscribe https://fave.co/2U3cRGN, True Blue LA will receive a portion of that fee.

A good deal to watch just the National League Divisional and Championship Series is SlingTV. For $15 you can have TBS among other networks and you should be able to watch the Dodgers play this series and if they advance, in the National League Championship Series. SlingTV does not carry Fox or FS1, there is free preview of MLB Network through October 12th that will cover the two American League Divisional Series games being shown on that network.
