@JakeJakeMcgil Please let me know if they're not able to resolve the issue! Sorry you're going through this - we'll get it all worked out for you.

@bfidelman Novi for both, and just checked I don’t have a VPN or something. On hold with MLB customer service from the FAQ page.

Here is the list of providers in our home territory carrying Detroit SportsNet to start the Tigers season. Streaming subscriptions are always available at Tigers.com/DetroitSportsN…! #DNMW

@JakeJakeMcgil What’s your billing zip code, what’s the zip code of where you’re trying to watch from? The Fubo comment makes it seem like your issues might be caused by being outside of our home television market.

Confirmed on MLB. Com that I have subscribed to DSN. MLB App on Roku I can “browse subscriptions” and have the option to buy DSN. Logged out, deleted app from Roku, checked for updates and still have the option to buy. Clicked just to see what would happen and… nothing. Not available on Fubo either. Incredibly frustrating.

@WAurand Hey Walker - honestly, I am not sure. Not to pass the buck, but would suggest reaching out to the MLBtv customer support for guidance on this one. support.mlb.com/s/contact-us?l…

@bfidelman Hey Ben, are we not able to AirPlay the MLB app on our tv? Thanks!

@RussNFLDraft Russell, did you get it figured out? Suggest downloading the MLB App and subscribing to Detroit SportsNet there.

The hurdles you have to go through to watch a baseball game in 2026 is absolutely insane. Have MLB TV and Tigers are blacked out because I’m local. Go to download the NEW Detroit Sports Network and the only 3 apps I can use are apps that I do not use.

@Jaymo29 @tigers @ESPNFANSUPPORT Hey Jason - assuming you're viewing from inside our TV market, please log into the MLB App to watch the Tigers on Detroit SportsNet.

Hey @tigers I purchased your subscription and yet I cannot watch on ESPN app. What’s going on? @ESPNFANSUPPORT @bfidelman

@BillOrzechowsk2 Good question! Traditional road uniforms today.

@bfidelman What’s the uniform for today

The journey begins! #DNMW #OpeningDay

@LDJT @DanMillerFox2 Yes! Whether on your phone, smart TV, or any connected device - to stream Tigers games, all you have to do is download the MLB App and log in!

@bfidelman @DanMillerFox2 Assuming I pay the $20/month, is there an app I can download on my TV to stream the game?

@BSzachta Annoying, but it takes some time to get it set up after agreements are finalized. It’ll probably be available in the next week or two.

@bfidelman When will we be able to use a cable login on the MLB app?

@G2gaynor @Glew91383 @YouTubeTV I can’t tell if you’re rage baiting or serious. They haven’t regularly carried RSNs for years - including ones with 24/7 programming. And… We have a top-10 payroll in baseball. Find a new slant.

@bfidelman @Glew91383 @YouTubeTV They are not going to take a station with zero programming besides pre, post and an actual game and expect to pay a fraction of the price as they would of a station that has 24/7 programming. Besides, there's a LONG history of Chris Ilitch being all about profit & being cheap

@G2gaynor @Glew91383 @YouTubeTV I mean they carry like three RSN’s out of all that exist in the country. So I’d find it hard to say it’s directly the fault of any team/RSN?

@Glew91383 @bfidelman @YouTubeTV No, you can blame the tigers. They are the ones who want way too much money for a channel that will be on air on average less than 4 hours per day.

@_nelso14 @bythewaybro Sounds like channels have been starting to show up across all the providers over the last 24 hours or so. I’m sure it’ll be available by first pitch!

@bfidelman @bythewaybro Fubo doesn’t have the channel yet. Will it be available by game time today?

@ColeColwell1 Sorry for the inconvenience, hopefully it’s a short term issue! Let me know if you want to come to a game this year. I’ll send you a pair of tickets to try and make good for it.

@bfidelman Will refunds be provided for customers who already have DSN through cable provider but can’t access away from home internet for some reason, so they have to pay $20 a month for something they already have bc mlb app doesn’t allow them to sign in with provider credentials?

@johnnyd8131 @tigers @DetroitTigersPR @bet365 Takes some time to get this set up after agreements are reached. Should have the ability to in the next couple of weeks!

@tigers @DetroitTigersPR @bet365 How do I log in to MLB app thru my cable provider?

@TonyPaul1984 @TrpkovskiM1 😂

@TrpkovskiM1 Waiting to make sure it works!

I’ve purchased Detroit SportsNet. By the month. I struggle with commitment.

@JoeMichiganFan You can sign up any time! If you signed up before March 23, you’d have gotten games for free until April 1. Was just pointing out that early subscriber benefit was about to end.

@bfidelman so if i sign up on march 25 2026 i will not be able to see opening day game?

@jsak001 @w1llsp Hey! Below is the info👇

@bfidelman @w1llsp This is what I’d like to know too. As with other apps like FanDuel, you can login with your cable provider to watch games on your phone or computer while still in home market (like at work or a restaurant with no TVs). I hope we have this capability.

@andrewjhsports @greenforlife6 Hey! Streaming will be through the MLB App.

@bfidelman @greenforlife6 Do we know if it'll be through the MLB app or is there gonna be a separate DSN app?

@w1llsp Hey! Have been told that feature will be available, but not right away for opening day. Takes a bit of time to get it all set up.

@bfidelman Hey Ben! I know someone asked a similar question but I wanted to make sure it’s clear. Will we be able to use our cable login to watch at mlb.com on our browser? Sort of like how you can authenticate Twins.tv for example on the site
