MlB tv is aweful this year.
Been an MLB.tv sub for 5 years. This year is aweful. I live in Southern IN and they blacked out the CIN games in Atlanta....the support people said that STL and CIN are on my blkout list but i just watched STL in Atlanta a few weeks ago...STL and CIN shld only be blacked out for me for their respective home games...and yes their phone and txt support are people outside the US who reply to you based on scripts and are no help. NOT renewing next year.
An absolute ripoff
An absolute ripoff. For $29.99 month, you get the privilege of being infested with ads one after another. The Google cloud ad that shows a baseball going across the screen with an abnoxious sound effect appears all too regularly, often every minute and a half. What a slap in the face to paying subscribers. Baseball is not what it used to be, thanks to the corporate world.
App crashes every half-inning
Starting late last year, the app freezes on my Roku TV at every half inning commercial break. It gives me a network error. I reached out to MLB last year with no resolution. I reached out to Roku and they said it is a known issue with MLB.TV.
Useless to watch your own local team
This is the first time I ever wrote a Trust Pilot Review. And frankly, good reviews should be supported more than negative, but wow Mlb.TV is awful.
The only positive for MLB.TV is if you want to watch teams outside your local area, it will work fine.
I'm a Yankee Fan so in the past I was told to use a VPN and had to pay for Surfshark to use the service. It was already expensive. Now, I can never watch the game because of Gotham Sports? Like what's the point of having the service if you cannot watch your own team. Also support is outsourced, people have no idea what you are talking about (poor English, no knowledge of baseball).
Please allow people to watch their own teams without a blackout, it's completely abhorrent.
Ruined with Streaming Exclusives
Used MLB.TV last year without much issue. Got it again this year for $150 and miss at least one game a week so far, due to streaming services with exclusives (I.e. can’t watch certain games without also having ESPN, AppleTV, etc). $150 is too much to pay to be locked out of games. Blackouts are enough of a headache without these streaming service exclusives. Won’t be resubscribing.
Don't buy!
If I want to watch a game, I don't want to do it an hour after it starts. This app is a joke. Never again
Waist of money no games in area ever…
Waist of money no games in area ever available! Haven't watched my tigers in years everything has changed so much I need 5 different apps to watch a game not worth the money. How people stay fans and watch there baseball team I really have no idea. Used to be able to watch with out cable ! Sad!

MLB TV is great if you want to give MLB money and being unable to access a single game. Bonus points for zero customer service and difficulty cancelling.
Over the past few years there have been…
Over the past few years there have been more and more blackout games due to MLB selling them to other servers. Very disappointing.
MLB app
If I could rate it a zero I would! Most Mets games are blacked out.
Zero stars Home games blacked out
Zero stars Home games blacked out. Unless you have fanduel. Dont want fanduel so i get 1/2 season for full price. What a joke.
Opening day a disaster
Opening day a disaster. They blackout games on other networks. If I pay this much money to watch, I should be able to go to app and watch all games regardless for my team in one spot not have to get other apps just to get certain games and search all around for my game. This will be my last season with MLBTV. Horrible, and the ads are annoying same ones over and over and volume way way higher than game is. I pisses people off around when I am trying to watch a game have to be by device to lower volume very quickly because ads 3x louder!
Someone got my credit card info and…
Someone got my credit card info and subscribed for a year, 149.99. I have been calling, texting, and emailing for a week now and am always assured someone will call me back and it has never happened. I'd love to be reimbursed but all I am really after is to have the person who fraudulently used my card NOT have free access to a year of baseball. Customer service could not care less.
What a pleasure it is to have aquired…
What a pleasure it is to have aquired MLB TV! It’s great when you can look at all of the games available and can switch back and forth between many. This is a must for the true baseball fan! Thank You for providing such an outstanding network!
$150 For A Slap in the Face
After paying $150 for the yearly subscription, MLB's Opening Day which is the single biggest day of my year was a disaster. I missed half the days games due to their system failure and, as apology, received a coupon saying if I spent $25 MORE DOLLARS they'd give me $10 back. What a slap in the face to a loyal, long-time subscriber.
Not Worth The Cost!!!
Atrocious for an app of this magnitude! Can't even watch a game, that I'm paying for, without constant interruptions! It's not just a single game, it's every game!
MLB is not honest about their black out.…
I signed up for the out market games package. Four out of the five games I looked at were blacked out by Apple TV.MLB did not inform me about this.They just stated that some games may blacked out.None of the games blacked out were local games.
iOS mlb.tv app
iOS - Spoilers unavoidable renders the app useless to me in the UK. No stat overlays like there used to be. Watching archived games with the Gameday window open to have stats and the stats update ahead of the video. No extra time added to archived feeds to help avoid knowing tied games. The one bright spot this year is moving the forward-skip button to 10 secs. I’m that close to getting a refund and accepting baseball is no longer something I can enjoy. All on a simple design choice, but can’t make my voice heard.
Same old same old—poor service all the way around
Well I see by the reviews that I’m not alone on this. Just horrible. Missed Opening Day because there was an error when I tried to watch. Called and on hold and just automatically hung up on me. Got a response over four hours later after I requested customer service via text. Didn’t fix my issue, and unable to refund my subscription have to go through Apple. What a joke. So unfortunate because I would love to watch all the games but I’ve had the subscription in the past, decided to try again, but same old same ol.
Stayed home today to watch the Angels
Stayed home today to watch the Angels, and all I get when I click on the game while on the MLB app, is Error. Reached out to others and they are getting the same message. I hate this app!
