A Note on MLB.TV
MLB.TV remains an out-of-market product. For 22 of 30 clubs, there is a separate local in-market subscription sold inside the MLB app (~$19.99/month or ~$99.99/season) that carries no local blackout. Games exclusive to national partners (Netflix, NBC/Peacock, Apple TV, FOX, ESPN) are not on MLB.TV — that’s a rights issue, not a technical blackout. No public MLB.TV blackout map exists for Latin American countries, so availability may vary.

Keys to the Game
The Dodgers arrive at Oracle Park as one of baseball’s hottest teams, sitting at 97-62 and looking to keep their late-season momentum going. The Giants, at 65-94, are simply playing out the string on a tough campaign.
The pitching matchup heavily favors Los Angeles. Tarik Skubal has been dominant all year — 2.85 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 176 strikeouts — while Yunior Marte, the Dominican right-hander from Azua, steps in with a 4.66 ERA and just 11 strikeouts on the season. All eyes will be on whether San Francisco’s offense can do anything against one of the game’s best arms.
