Phillies Game Available for Streaming This Season Through NBC Sports App
Fans can now enjoy watching the Phillies on the go through the NBC Sports app
Television ratings are down across the board, and companies are looking for ways to expand their reach and prevent people from “cutting the cord” at home. Last year NBC began streaming Flyers and Sixers games online and through the NBC Sports app for those with a qualifying TV subscription at no additional cost.
Now starting this season, you can watch the Phillies anywhere you go through the NBC website and app.
In a press release revealed on Thursday, NBC announced plans to expand their streaming options for local markets.

This saves anyone who travels or lives on the west coast from overpaying for MLB.TV, which I have found to be fairly unreliable. You’ll also be able to watch the games through a streaming device, such as an Apple TV or Amazon Fire Stick.
As someone who currently lives outside the grips of the Philadelphia media market, having not just Philadelphia baseball, but all of the major sports available is a major plus. It’s just as convenient for those who are either constantly traveling, or are unable to be home for a game.
Considering how much went into the Phillies $2.5 billion television contract with Comcast SportsNet, the ability to extend advertising past the regional limits alone is a major plus for all sides.
