How To Watch the 2025 San Diego Padres Season

You can watch your Padres on FOX, FS1, ESPN, MLB Network, TBS, and Apple TV+.

Friar Faithful, the 2025 MLB season is here, and we’ve got everything you need to watch the San Diego Padres all year long. Whether you’re streaming games on PADRES.TV or catching national broadcasts on FOX Sports or ESPN, we’ll help you follow along on TV with ease.

The Padres are coming off a strong 93-win season and another playoff run. With a talented roster and a competitive National League West race ahead, this season promises plenty of must-watch moments. So grab your Fernando Tatis Jr. jersey, load up on game-day snacks, and get ready for another exciting year of Padres baseball.

Which channels have San Diego Padres games?

You can stream all in-market San Diego Padres games with a PADRES.TV subscription. Select games will also air nationally on FOX, FS1, ESPN, MLB Network, and TBS, with some streaming on Apple TV+ and The Roku Channel.

If you live beyond the Padres’ TV market, you can get an MLB.TV or MLB EXTRA INNINGS subscription for out-of-market access to all games that air on PADRES.TV.

How much does PADRES.TV cost?

To start the 2025 season, PADRES.TV is available for $19.99 per month or $99.99 for the whole season. This subscription lets you stream all in-market San Diego Padres games live and on demand. Of course, you must live within the team’s broadcast territory, which includes portions of California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and Hawaii.

If you live in those regions but prefer traditional cable or satellite TV, you can watch in-market games on the MLB San Diego Padres TV channel via DIRECTV, Spectrum TV, or Cox.

For fans outside the Padres’ home market, MLB.TV continues to offer out-of-market coverage. But keep in mind that national blackouts apply to PADRES.TV and MLB.TV when Padres games air exclusively on channels like FOX, FS1, and Apple TV+.
