I know Detroit Tigers fans are exhilarated about the Wild Card series win over the Cleveland Guardians. The Tigers earned a spot in the American League Division Series against the Seattle Mariners, and are just three more wins away from the Championship Series.
Keep it here throughout the postseason, where I’ll be updating the viewing options for every Detroit game as the team advances through the playoffs.

What channels have Detroit Tigers games?
When the Detroit Tigers aren’t playing in front of national audiences on Apple TV+, ESPN, FOX, FS1, and MLB Network, fans can watch their games on FanDuel Sports Network Detroit (FDSDET).
If FDSDET is unavailable where you live, you’ll need MLB.TV or MLB EXTRA INNINGS to watch out-of-market Tigers games.
Want radio coverage? You can listen to every Tigers game on 97.1 FM The Ticket or an affiliate near you. Spanish broadcasts are also available for home games on LaZ 1310 AM and 107.9 FM.
Best TV plans for watching the Detroit Tigers
Outside of streaming-exclusive games on Apple TV+, only a few TV providers carry all the channels local fans need to watch every Detroit Tigers game this season. Of the options, my top pick is Fubo. Its Pro plan—the most affordable package Fubo offers—has everything you need. This means you don’t have to upgrade or get any add-ons to watch your Tigers, but you’ll have a regional sports fee for FDSDET access.
If you prefer a more traditional provider, DIRECTV is a good option. It has all the channels the Tigers will play on, but you’ll need to sign up for the Choice package to get FanDuel Sports Network. This will cost about $5 more per month than Fubo before any regional sports fees.
Unsure which one to pick? Take advantage of the free streaming trials both providers offer to find the one that’s best for you.
Standalone in-market TV package for Tigers games
If you’re a local fan who doesn’t want a full-blown TV provider to watch the Tigers in 2025, a subscription to FanDuel Sports Network is the way to go. This will let you watch every regular-season game that isn’t nationally televised. After subscribing, you can watch games online or in the FanDuel Sports Network app.

How to watch the Detroit Tigers FAQ
Can I watch the Detroit Tigers for free?
Yes, you can watch the Detroit Tigers for free with an over-the-air antenna when games air on national channels. Use the FCC’s Reception Map Tool to find the channels that are available where you live.
Are Detroit Tigers games available on Amazon Prime Video?
Yes, most Detroit Tigers games are available on Prime Video through add-on channels. Local fans need to buy the FanDuel Sports Network add-on, while out-of-market fans must purchase the MLB.TV add-on. Additionally, the Tigers–Yankees matchup on September 10 will stream on Prime Video at no extra cost for Prime subscribers who live in the Yankees’ TV market.
Will Tigers games be on ESPN after the 2025 season?
Possibly. Major League Baseball and ESPN previously announced that they would not renew their media rights deal after the 2025 season, but recent reports indicate the two sides are now discussing a possible extension.
