Watching the Phillies in The Postseason
The remainder of the Phillies postseason will air on TBS throughout the NLCS and Fox if they make it to the World Series. If you want to pick up a streaming service to watch the Phillies in their playoff run, your most affordable option to stream TBS is Sling TV for $40 per month, or you can take advantage of a free trial to DIRECTV STREAM, as they also have TBS. Other options to stream TBS are YouTube TV, DIRECTV STREAM, and Hulu Live TV.
Recently, Max announced they would stream MLB Postseason games airing on TBS live! However, If the Phillies make it to The World Series, the remainder of their postseason will shift to Fox, which Max does not stream. So you could only use Max to watch the Phillies in the NLCS.
While Sling is great for watching TBS, it only provides Fox if you live in the following TV markets: Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth, Detroit, Gainesville, Houston, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, Minneapolis/St. Paul, New York, Orlando/Daytona/Melbourne, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose, Seattle, Tampa/St. Petersburg, or Washington, DC.
If you live outside of those markets and the Phillies make it to the World Series, then you could either watch Fox for free with an antenna or stream Fox with YouTube TV, DIRECTV STREAM, fuboTV, or Hulu Live TV. YouTube TV, DIRECTV STREAM and fuboTV offer no-risk free trials, so you could take advantage of those to watch the World Series on Fox for Free.
