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 is blackout-free. Games exclusive to national partners (Netflix, NBC/Peacock, Apple TV, FOX, ESPN) are not available on MLB.TV — that’s not a blackout, they simply aren’t part of the package. No public blackout map exists for Latin American countries, so availability by territory should not be stated as a certainty.

- New York Mets: 53–67 (.442)
- Atlanta Braves: 71–48 (.597)
Atlanta comes in as a clear favorite at home, sitting comfortably in the NL East race. The Mets, 18 games under .500, are looking to pick up wins down the stretch and chip away at the division gap.
