A Note on MLB.TV
MLB.TV remains an out-of-market product. For 22 of 30 clubs, a separate in-market local subscription is available inside the MLB app (~$19.99/month or ~$99.99/season), and it is blackout-free locally. Games exclusive to national partners (Netflix, NBC/Peacock, Apple TV, FOX, ESPN) are not included in MLB.TV — that’s not a blackout, they simply aren’t part of the package. No public blackout map exists for MLB.TV by Latin American country.
