The Cincinnati Reds will make history this season when they play in the MLB Speedway Classic on August 2. This first-of-its-kind event will feature the Reds taking on the Atlanta Braves inside Bristol Motor Speedway, one of NASCAR’s most popular tracks.
Yes, you read that right. Baseball at a racing venue. I hope you’re as excited as I am to watch the game and everything that comes with it.
The Speedway Classic is the highlight of the Reds’ regular season, but the team does have 161 other games on the 2025 calendar. In the guide below, I’ll walk you through how to watch every single one, from the must-have channels to the full TV schedule.

What channels have Cincinnati Reds games?
As the regional home for the Cincinnati Reds in 2025, FanDuel Sports Network Ohio (FDSOH) will broadcast most of the team’s games. The Reds will also make appearances on Apple TV+, FOX, FS1, MLB Network, and TBS.
Out-of-market fans will need MLB.TV or MLB EXTRA INNINGS to watch Reds games that air on FDSOH.
Want additional coverage? You can watch Reds Live, the team’s 30-minute pre- and postgame show, on FanDuel Sports Network Ohio.
Best TV plans for watching the Cincinnati Reds
Do you want to watch the Cincinnati Reds battle for their first playoff appearance since 2020? Of course you do, that’s why I’ve broken down the best TV plans to help you catch every single game.
The only platform or channel not covered through these viewing options is Apple TV+, which requires a separate subscription.
Fubo ($14.99–$94.99/mo.)
Fubo has been my go-to choice for fans looking to watch their favorite MLB team this season. With 234 channels in Fubo’s Pro plan, including FanDuel Sports Network Ohio, local fans can watch every Reds game and enjoy a whole lot more entertainment outside of baseball. Fubo also includes Lookback, a feature I love. It lets you watch content on demand up to 72 hours after it originally aired.
While I love what Fubo has to offer, it does include a required regional sports fee. This can cost up to $16.99 per month, depending on where you live. That fee stings a little, but Fubo is still the most affordable way to watch the Reds when compared to other TV providers.
FanDuel Sports Network ($19.99/mo.)
In-market fans can subscribe to FanDuel Sports Network (FDSN) to watch every Reds game that isn’t nationally televised. While FDSN is the only standalone TV package available for local Reds fans, I think it’s a really good choice.
The pricing is transparent, and it’s accessible on most devices. There are also no local blackouts, which is one less thing to stress about during the season. (Again, just watch out for those Apple TV+ exclusives.)
From now until August 31, new FDSN subscribers can use promo code REDSBOGO to buy one month and get the second month free. With the biggest games of the season yet to be played, this is a can’t-miss offer.
2025 Cincinnati Reds playoffs TV schedule
The Reds have their work cut out for them as they head into the Wild Card series against the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers. They’ll have to win on the road and deal with the likes of Shohei Ohtani to pull off what I think would be considered a huge upset.
Check out the Reds’ full postseason schedule in the table below.
