Baseball season is almost here, and for fans of the Los Angeles Angels, getting your game fix just got a little clearer, especially with FanDuel's growing presence in sports broadcasting. It's not just about the thrill of the game anymore; it's about knowing exactly where to tune in.
For those who prefer the traditional route, the Angels will continue to be a staple on the FanDuel Sports Network West (FDSN West). This means your favorite pre-game shows, post-game analysis, and of course, all the regular season games (barring national broadcasts) will be right there. You can catch them on familiar channels like DirecTV (692), Spectrum (320), and Cox in Orange County (64). And don't worry, the familiar voices of Wayne Randazzo, Mark Gubicza, and Erica Weston will be back to call the action.
But what if you're more of a digital native, always on the go or simply prefer streaming? This is where things get really interesting for 2026. While FDSN West remains your cable and satellite hub, the Angels are also launching their own direct-to-consumer streaming platform: Angels.TV. Think of it as your dedicated portal to Halos baseball.
Starting this season, you can stream Angels games directly through the MLB app with an Angels.TV subscription. This is a big deal for fans within the Angels' home TV territory. For $99.99 for the season or $19.99 a month, you can stream all local broadcasts with no blackouts, which is fantastic. Even if you're traveling, you're generally covered, though you might run into blackout restrictions from the opposing team's local market. It's important to note that this is separate from the standard MLB.TV package; if you're in the home market, you'll need that specific Angels.TV subscription to stream locally.
For those outside the Angels' home territory, the standard MLB.TV package will still be your go-to for out-of-market games. It's a bit of a distinction, but ultimately, it means more ways than ever to follow the team.
And for the national broadcasts? Keep an eye out for the Angels on ESPN, Apple TV, FS1, and NBC's Peacock throughout the season. These games are handled by MLB's national partners, so they won't be on FDSN West or Angels.TV, but it's always exciting to see the team get that national spotlight.
Navigating the streaming world can sometimes feel like a complex play, but with Angels.TV integrating into the MLB app and FDSN West continuing its broadcast, it seems like the goal is to make it as seamless as possible for fans to stay connected to their team. So, whether you're settled in front of the TV or catching up on your phone, you've got options.
