DIRECTV Collaborates with MLB and Government to Add Channel Before Opening Day
March 27, 2025 – With Major League Baseball’s Opening Day set for tomorrow, DIRECTV is working closely with MLB and government officials to ensure the timely addition of a crucial channel for fans. The collaboration comes amid negotiations to expand coverage and improve access for viewers nationwide.
DIRECTV has been in discussions with MLB to secure broadcast rights, while also coordinating with government regulators to meet all necessary requirements. The urgency of the move underscores the high demand for comprehensive baseball coverage as the new season begins.
“Baseball fans deserve seamless access to every game, and we’re committed to delivering that experience,” a DIRECTV spokesperson said. “We appreciate MLB and government agencies for working with us to make this possible.”
While specific details about the channel have yet to be disclosed, sources suggest it could involve a regional sports network or an MLB-affiliated station. More updates are expected as the final arrangements are made ahead of tomorrow’s first
pitch.
