The Phillies fired their manager in June after a slow start to the season and were the last team in the National League to qualify for postseason play. After swiping the third and last NL Wild Card spot, they proceeded to sweep the Cardinals in St. Louis in the Wild Card round. They now find themselves two wins away from advancing to the NLCS. After splitting the first two games in Atlanta against the defending champion Braves, the series now shifts to Philadelphia for games 3 and 4. Game 3 starts today at 4:37 p.m. ET (1:37 p.m. PT) on FS1.
Here’s how you can watch baseball’s postseason, from the Division Series through the World Series, on live TV streaming services.

What channels do I need to watch the MLB playoffs?
The next two rounds of the National League playoffs (the NLDS and NLCS) will be on Fox and FS1, while the American League (the ALDS and ALCS) will be on TBS. The World Series, which begins on Oct. 28, will be on Fox.
How can I watch the MLB playoffs without cable?
Three of the five major live TV streaming services carry all of the channels you need to watch every game of the postseason, but not every service carries every local network, so check each one using the links below to make sure it carries Fox in your area.
If you live in an area with good reception, then you can watch the games on Fox for free on over-the-air broadcast channels just by attaching an affordable (under $30) indoor antenna to nearly any TV.
FuboTV’s Family plan costs $70 a month and includes Fox and FS1 for the NLDS, NLCS and World Series, but it does not offer TBS for the ALDS and ALCS. Click here to see which local channels you get. Read our FuboTV review.
