If you’re here, that means you’re still a diehard Athletics MLB fan. We get it—the whole Oakland departure thing is a sore spot. But hey, you’ve still got to figure out how to watch their games on TV, right?
Well, we have a list of the channels and TV providers you’ll want to catch your A’s on during this 2025 MLB season. We also have the Spring Training and regular-season TV schedules so you can stay up on all game times.
Don’t give up on your beloved Athletics just yet. Read on for all the TV details and keep the A’s spirit alive as they fight to reclaim their spot atop the American League West.
Which channels have Oakland Athletics games?
You can watch all 2025 A’s games on NBC Sports California, NBC Sports California+, MLB Network, and FOX.
NBC Sports California is available through a variety of live TV streaming services—including DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, and YouTube TV—so you have plenty of options to choose from if you’re an in-market fan. Meanwhile, games streaming on NBCSCA+ are available in the NBC Sports app using your TV provider login. Cable and satellite viewers will need that app for a few local games, while those with a live TV streaming service will automatically get those games without the extra app.
If you don’t live in the Northern California region, you’ll likely miss out on NBC Sports California’s Athletics broadcasts. So, let’s say you recently moved to Des Moines and still want to keep up with the A’s; you’ll need MLB.TV or MLB EXTRA INNINGS to watch games outside the Athletics’ home TV market.
Oakland Athletics game schedule: times, channels, and more
The 2025 season marks the Athletics’ 125th year and a new chapter at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento. During the relocation, A’s games will remain on NBC Sports California, as highlighted in the TV schedule below. But if you’re following the team far from Northern California, MLB.TV remains your best bet for tuning in.
From March to September, the Athletics’ regular-season schedule includes several must-watch matchups. Here’s hoping they can build on last year’s 69–93 finish.

How to watch the Athletics’ Spring Training games
