Baltimore Orioles Baseball on TV & Live Stream

Baltimore Orioles

Based in Baltimore, Maryland, the Baltimore Orioles, otherwise known as ‘the O’s’, have been plying their trade in the pro baseball arena since 1901. Competing in the East division of the American League, the franchise has enjoyed three World Series titles, with the most recent success coming in 1983. The O’s do battle at Oriole Park at Camden Yards as their home ballpark, which has hosted their games ever since 1992. For fans not lucky enough to attend in person, this guide will provide everything you need to know about the Baltimore Orioles live TV and streaming options.

What Channel is the Orioles Game on Tonight?

For those in the area, Orioles games will be broadcast on the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN). MASN is the exclusive regional sports network for Orioles games, and the Washington Nationals, which means it will showcase any Orioles game not broadcast nationally or on a cable network, including comprehensive pre and post-game programming. Any games that are to be broadcast nationally will be shown on any of the following channels, depending on when the game is taking place:

• ESPN: Select nationally broadcast MLB games and Sunday Night Baseball
• TBS: MLB on Tuesday
• FOX: 20 Saturday late afternoon or evening games, and four Thursday night games
• MLB Network: 26 MLB Network Showcase games

It is worth noting, however, that the MLB Network games will be subject to blackout restrictions, as the competing team's local TV rights holders will also be carrying the game.

How to Stream Orioles Games Online

For fans who have transitioned into the wonderful world of TV streaming, MASN is included in a couple of major streaming packages. Not every platform does have the channel within its portfolio though, so be extra careful when choosing. Our recommendation would be either Fubo or DirectTV Stream, which feature MASN alongside the channels you need for any nationally broadcasted games.

MLB.TV: The most comprehensive streaming option for MLB games is MLB.TV, which provides access to every live out-of-market game that isn’t shown on national television. This means that Orioles fans can enjoy every away game, but they will need access to MASN or the relevant national broadcaster for any in-market games. Don't worry though, even though Orioles fans in the region won't be able to enjoy the game live on MLB.TV due to the restrictions, full replays will be available shortly after.

Other streaming options: Even with one of the comprehensive TV streaming packages named above, you unfortunately still won’t have access to every game on the MLB schedule. This is because the MLB have offered some exclusive games to streaming platforms, such as ESPN+, Roku and Apple TV. These prices are regularly changing, but there are often free trials to take advantage of:

• ESPN+: One out-of-market game per day throughout the regular season
• Roku: MLB Sunday Leadoff - Broadcasting early Sunday afternoon games during the regular season
• Fox Sports App: Stream any games shown on FOX, but requires a TV provider login
• TBS Sports App: Stream Tuesday night games on TBS
• Apple TV+: Stream Friday Night Baseball exclusive games

Home of the Orioles

The Orioles played at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore since they moved to the city in 1953. In 1991, the franchise decided to construct a new home – Camden Yards – the first of the “retro” ballparks built in the 1990s and early 2000s. Today, the stadium bears the name Oriole Park at Camden Yards and is still one of the best venues in baseball. Oriole Park seats 45,971 and has standing room capabilities to fit 48,187 though the stadium record stands at 48,828.

History of the Orioles

Before the 1966 season, the Orioles traded for slugger Frank Robinson who would win the AL MVP and the Triple Crown leading Baltimore to its first MLB World Series championship. The Orioles have won three total (1966, 1970, and 1983). Baltimore captured AL East Division titles nine times – 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1979, 1983, 1997, and 2014. The Orioles captured the American League pennant seven times (1944, 1966, 1969, 19770, 1971, 1979, 1983), the most recent coming in 1983. The Orioles also made the playoffs in 1996, 2012, and 2016 as a MLB wild card. Any talk of the best players in Orioles history begins with the Robinsons – Frank and Brooks. The former, as stated earlier, won the AL MVP and Triple Crown in 1966 while leading Baltimore to a World Series title. Having won the NL MVP in 1961 while with Cincinnati, Robinson is the only MLB player ever to win the MVP in both leagues. He was the NL’s Rookie of the Year in 1956, a 14-time MLB All-Star, and also won the 1989 AL Manager of the Year award. Third baseman Brooks Robinson played his entire 23-year MLB career in Baltimore (a MLB record). An outstanding fielder, many consider Robinson the greatest defensive third baseman to ever play the game. He holds the MLB record for consecutive Gold Glove Awards at 16. Robinson was an 18-time All-Star and played on the Orioles’ 1966 and 1970 World Series championship teams. He was the MVP of the 1970 World Series when Baltimore beat Cincinnati. Cal Ripken Jr. was known as the “Iron Man” for having broken Lou Gehrig’s record of consecutive MLB games played (2,632). A native of Maryland, he played all of his 21 MLB seasons in Baltimore. Ripken went to the All-Star game 19 times, was the AL Rookie of the Year in 1982, won two AL MVPs (1983, 1991, and played on the 1983 World Series championship team.
