Named after the beer makers of Milwaukee, the Milwaukee Brewers are an MLB team that plays in the NL Central Division. It is easy to live stream Brewers baseball on an array of different devices, from Roku to Amazon Fire TV, to Samsung Smart TVs, and even iPhones. However, at present, there is only one live TV streaming provider that carries the Brewers primary local channel for in-market fans, Bally Sports Wisconsin, and that provider is DIRECTV STREAM. Out-of-market, Brewers fans can follow the team on MLB.TV.

The most important channels for Brewers fans
As you can see from the Brewers TV schedule we publish below, the bulk of regular season Brewers games are broadcast by Bally Sports Wisconsin, the regional sports network (RSN) that carries the Brewers, Bucks, and some Wisconsin Badgers games.
When the Brewers are on national TV, ESPN, FOX, FS1, MLB Network, and TBS will carry the game. On occasion, the Brewers might also be featured on Apple TV+ or Peacock in an exclusive “streaming only” broadcast. When the Brewers appear on the “big stage” national games, Bally Sports Wisconsin will be blacked out.

How to watch this week’s Brewers games
Looking for a specific Brewers game? We maintain an up to date list of all the televised Brewers games, as well as the live TV streaming providers that carry the games, in the easy to use table below.
The best option for local Brewers fans
DirecTV Stream
Until Sinclair Broadcasting, the owner of the Bally Sports branded RSNs (formerly FOX RSNs) reaches terms with more live TV streaming providers, DirecTV Stream will be able to continue keeping the Bally channels in its “Choice” package, which costs over $1,000 per year.
The good news is that DirecTV Stream gets you the Brewers, Bucks, and the Green Bay Packers (not on Bally Sports Wisconsin), plus some popular local college teams.
In Milwaukee, NFL fans can watch the Packers on WITI, FOX 6 Milwaukee, and on ESPN when Aaron Rodgers and company appear on Monday Night Football.

If you don’t live in Milwaukee
Although it’s near impossible to determine the exact borders of some regional sports networks, we estimate that Bally Sports Wisconsin is available in Wisconsin, Eastern Minnesota, Western UP, and Northwestern Illinois and Iowa. Outside of these areas, out-of-market Brewers fans will have to buy an MLB.TV package if they want to follow along all summer with Milwaukee baseball.
MLB.TV is the premium out-of-market option for MLB fans. With MLB.TV fans can circumvent the regional broadcast rules and watch any game they like, including Brewers games. If you want to follow just one team all summer, the rate drops to a one time annual fee of $109.99.
ESPN+ – see Brewers games every so often
ESPN+ carries one out-of-market MLB game per day during the regular season. While adding ESPN+ won’t allow you to follow the Brewers all season, you will get a diverse lineup of teams, and may get treated to a Brewers game once in a blue moon.
