Here is everything that you need to know about watching all of the MLB action on Apple TV+ during the 2024 season, beginning with Friday's doubleheader. 

Watching Apple TV+ without cable

Fans do not need cable to tune into this year's slate of Friday night games on Apple TV+. 

Back in 2022, fans could simply head to the Apple TV app and watch "Friday Night Baseball" for free, but that changed last season and holds for this season. Viewers can choose between paying $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year for Apple TV+, which allows them to watch all "Friday Night Baseball" action. The service also offers a seven-day free trial, so users can try before they buy.

The Apple TV app comes preinstalled on all Apple devices, and it is available on other devices like smart TVs, Roku, PlayStation and Xbox gaming consoles, and Chromecast, among other platforms. Additional information is available at apple.com/apple-tv-app
