This is the latest in a string of moves by MLB that is adding to the cost for fans to be able to watch all of their team’s games.
Beyond the YES Network, Fox, ESPN and TBS, 21 Yankees games this season have been streamed on Amazon Prime Video. The Yankees have also been a part of Apple’s exclusive Friday slate this season and a Sunday game streaming on Roku.
They’ll likely have at least one game that’s exclusive to Peacock next season as part of MLB’s new rights deal with NBC.
Netflix and MLB have a three-year deal starting in 2026 that will give them the rights to the Home Run Derby, which has long been broadcast on ESPN, along with some special event regular-season games, per The Athletic.
