Streaming services · Sports bars · TV channels · Blackout info
For St. Louis Cardinals fans residing in their home market of St. Louis, MO, watching every game requires navigating local broadcast rights. As St. Louis is the Cardinals' home territory, most games will be broadcast on a regional sports network (RSN) or local over-the-air channels. This means that out-of-market streaming packages like MLB.TV will black out live Cardinals games for viewers within the St. Louis area. To catch all the action, your primary options are subscribing to a cable or satellite TV package that includes the Cardinals' regional sports network, or using a live TV streaming service that carries it. For select national broadcasts, you might find games on Apple TV+ (Friday nights), ESPN+, Peacock, or Fox Sports, but these only cover a limited number of games.
