While it’s easiest to watch every inning of the Brewers’ season if you have Bally Sports Wisconsin. However, major livestreaming platforms offer the option to see at least some nationally broadcast games. Now that we're in the postseason, more games are airing nationally, making it easier to watch at home. Here's what you need to know.


What channels are Milwaukee Brewers games on this season?

Most Milwaukee Brewers games will air on the Bally Sports Wisconsin network this season. If you don’t have a streaming service with Bally Sports networks, you’ll want to make sure you have MLB Network, Fox and Fox Sports 1 (FS1) to catch nationally broadcast games. The Brewers will also have two games air exclusively on Apple TV+ this season.

Hulu + Live TV doesn’t have Bally Sports Wisconsin, but on the bright side, it’s the only livestreaming service that gives you ESPN Plus as a part of your plan. You can use your Hulu login credentials to log in to the ESPN Plus app as soon as your Hulu + Live TV plan is active. The livestreaming service has two plans. Both plans have the same 95+ channel lineup. In addition to ESPN Plus coverage, you’ll also have MLB Network, Fox and FS1. 

Hulu + Live TV’s sports lineup also includes ESPN2, FS2, NFL Network, TNT, the ACC Network, Big Ten Network and SEC Network. Hulu + Live TV also has a Sports Add-on.

How to watch the Milwaukee Brewers on Sling TV

Sling TV doesn’t have Bally Sports Wisconsin, either. But it does have the MLB Network in the Sports Extra, plus channels that air nationally broadcast Brewers games. Milwaukee is one of the markets that gets local channels, including Fox, and if you live in this coverage area, your price will be increased. The Sling Blue package is the better option for Brewers fans because its lineup includes FS1 and Fox (where local channels are included). You can get the channels in both packages with the Sling Orange & Blue plan.

The Sports Extra add-on packages cost extra. Channels in these extras most importantly include MLB Network. Plus, you can get the NHL Network, NBA TV, MLB Network Strike Zone, Tennis Channel and NFL RedZone and Golf Channel.
