This weekend (April 10-12, 2026), the Cleveland Guardians (8-5, leading the AL Central) visit the Atlanta Braves (8-5, leading the NL East) for a three-game interleague series at Truist Park in Atlanta.
The Atlanta Braves have entered a new era for local game broadcasts in 2026. After exiting their previous regional sports network agreement, the team now produces and distributes its own telecasts under the BravesVision banner.
How To Watch the Atlanta Braves in 2026

BravesVision is available through partnerships with various distributors. Check your local provider for channel location (deals with Spectrum, Xfinity, DirecTV, and others are in place or being finalized; visit MLB.com/braves/schedule/watch for the latest channel guide).
Availability spans the Braves’ six-state territory.
Streaming Option (Direct-to-Consumer – No Blackouts for In-Market Fans):

Note: In-market fans cannot use the standard MLB.TV subscription alone for live Braves games due to blackout rules. Braves.TV is required for local access.
2. National Broadcasts
Select Braves games air nationally and are subject to exclusive rights (up to ~18 games per team). These are not available on BravesVision or Braves.TV:
- ESPN (Sunday Night Baseball, occasional weeknights)
- FOX / FS1 (Saturday games, select others)
- TBS (Tuesday nights, postseason)
- NBC / Peacock (multiple Sunday games)
- Apple TV+ (Friday Night Baseball)
- Other potential partners (e.g., Netflix for select openers or specials in the new media deals)
Live TV streaming services like Fubo, DIRECTV STREAM, YouTube TV, or Hulu + Live TV can carry most national channels (check individual lineups for Peacock, Apple TV+, etc.).
3. Free or Over-the-Air Options
The Braves continue their partnership with Gray Media for select “Braves on Gray” simulcasts. These games air free over-the-air on local Gray stations (e.g., Atlanta News First / Channel 46.1 in Atlanta) and reach markets across the Southeast.
Examples include the 2026 home opener and certain other games. Check local listings or watchongray.com.

Additional Tips for 2026
- Blackouts: Braves.TV eliminates local blackouts for in-market subscribers on non-national games. Out-of-market fans use standard MLB.TV (with typical blackout restrictions).
- Devices: Most options support streaming on phones, tablets, computers, and connected TVs.
- Cord-Cutters: Braves.TV + a national live TV streamer (e.g., Fubo or YouTube TV) covers the majority of games.
- For the most up-to-date channel listings and provider availability, visit the official Braves page: mlb.com/braves/schedule/watch.
This setup gives Braves fans more direct access and control over local broadcasts while maintaining traditional TV options where available. The transition from the previous Bally Sports/FanDuel Sports Network South/Southeast model marks a significant shift toward team-operated distribution.
