Royals announce details on how fans can watch games on cable TV and satellite
The Royals are promising a better viewing experience for fans watching their games now that Major League Baseball has taken over the broadcast of games.
Earlier this year, the Royals announced their games would no longer be shown on FanDuel Sports Kansas City as the league was taking over broadcast duties.
Ryan Lefebvre and Jake Eisenberg will remain on play-by-play duties. Rex Hudler, Jeremy Guthrie and Eric Hosmer will be analysts, and Joel Goldberg and Jeff Montgomery will continue on the pregame and postgame shows. Bridget Howard will work as a host and sideline reporter.
How to stream Royals games
Fans who have cut the cord can watch on Royals.TV for a cost of $99.99 for the full season, and there is a free seven-day trial.
How to watch on cable or satellite
The Royals on Thursday announced how fans will be able to watch on cable or satellite. It’ll be on the newly created Royals.TV channel.
The entire list of channels for watching games on cable or satellite are on the Royals’ website and can be found at mlb.com/royals/schedule/programming. These are some of the channels that will show Royals broadcasts that fans in Kansas City and elsewhere should know about:
