How To Watch The Orioles in the Postseason

Updated on 2023-10-08 By Dennis Restauro

Want A Quick Answer: The Orioles will play out the remainder of the postseason on either Fox or FS1. The most convenient way to watch both Fox and FS1 is with a free trial to DIRECTV STREAM, YouTube TV, or FuboTV. Hulu Live TV also has FS1 and Fox but doesn’t offer a free trial. Sling TV is the most affordable way to watch FS1, but they only offer Fox in about a third of the country.

Read on for more information on watching the Orioles’ next postseason game and their other games throughout the playoffs.

The Orioles Make The Postseason

Orioles magic was in full swing throughout the 2023 season. The Birds have made it to the playoffs with a record of 101-61, their 5th best finish in franchise history. This stellar season has earned the Orioles the number 1 seed for the American League postseason.

They will begin their ALDS series with the Rangers on October 7th. The first two games of this best-of-five series will air on FS1, with Fox and FS1 splitting duties for the remainder of the series.

While Sling’s Blue Plan has FS1 for $40 per month, they won’t have Fox unless you live in 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.

So unless you have a TV antenna that gets Fox, then DIRECTV STREAM, YouTube TV, Hulu Live TV, and FuboTV can provide FS1 and Fox. Read on for more information on watching the Orioles’ next Playoff game Game, or check out our guide on the best streaming services for watching the MLB postseason.

What Channel Are The Orioles On

The Orioles will play their first postseason series on a combination of Fox and FS1, so no games will be airing on MASN. The information below pertains to watching the Orioles during the regular season. Scroll back up to the top for information on watching the Orioles during the 2023 MLB postseason.

You can watch the Baltimore Orioles on MASN depending on whether or not you live inside the Baltimore Orioles TV market, which consists of Maryland, the District of Columbia, Virginia, eastern and central North Carolina, West Virginia, south-central Pennsylvania, and Delaware. Please note that if the Orioles are playing on the Apple TV+ Friday Night Game or Peacock’s Sunday morning game, then those games will not appear on MASN.

Watching Orioles Games Outside their TV Market

If you don’t live in the Orioles TV market, you can watch the Orioles through the MLB.TV streaming. With MLB.TV you can watch every game, for every team, all season long. With MLB.TV, you can watch Orioles games on Roku, Apple TV, Smart Devices, and more. You can watch Orioles games live or on-demand. Here is a list of MLB.TV features:

You can also opt to watch Orioles games through the MLB.TV single-team plan for $109.99 for the year. You can check out their subscription packages at MLB.TV.

Please note that MLB.TV does have blackout rules for games where a team is playing in the market you reside. For example, if the Orioles are playing the Yankees and you live in the New York area, that game will be blacked out on MLB.TV. You can check your zip code on MLB TV’s website to see which team’s games are under a blackout in your area. Nationally televised games will also be blacked out. The list below provides a general description of whether a game is going to be under a blackout:

  • Home and Away games of the designated team if you live within their blackout territory
  • Games that broadcast nationally such as the Apple TV+ games, ESPN Sunday game or Fox Saturday game
  • Play in games (Playoff tie-breakers)
  • Post Season Games, but there is a way around it

Pro Tip: Try This Blackout Workaround to watch the games you want to watch and get around the black-out.

Watching Nationally Televised Orioles Games

Nationally televised MLB games air on Fox, TBS, Peacock, Apple TV+, ESPN, MLB Network, and FS1. A handful of Orioles games will air nationally this season on one or more of those networks.
