Fans who want to watch MLB's All-Star festivities have multiple options to tune in and watch in 2023.

This year, just like last, MLB's signature All-Star events — the Home Run Derby and All-Star Game — will air on separate networks. The former will be broadcast on ESPN, while the latter will air on Fox. As such, there is no shortage of options for fans who want to watch the action unfold.

That's especially true for streamers, who get double the options this year as the All-Star action traverses multiple networks. Regardless of viewing preference, baseball fans all over will tune in to see whether the Mets' Pete Alonso can become just the second player all time to win the Home Run Derby three times. There's also the matter of the All-Star Game.

Here's all you need to tune in and watch all the All-Star action in 2023, including TV and streaming information:
