Watch the St. Louis Cardinals outside St. Louis
Moved away, or just a fan from afar? Here is exactly how Cardinals games reach you when you live outside the St. Louis area, and what it costs.
Inside St. Louis versus everywhere else
In the St. Louis area, most Cardinals games are on Cardinals team channel (DIRECTV Stream channel 672), included with DIRECTV Stream Choice or MySports + MyHome Team. Outside that area the network is not sold, so the games move to MLB.TV.
- Out of market: MLB.TV, $29.99 a month or $149.99 for the 2026 season
- National games: FOX, FS1, TBS, NBC, ESPN and MLB Network on DIRECTV Stream
- Playoffs: national broadcasts, no package needed
