Dodgers: Fubo to Live-Stream All 2026 Games as Fans Gain New Ways to Watch
In a living room near Dodger Stadium, a family leans forward as the home opener begins — the banner goes up and the crowd hushes for a ring ceremony. For the dodgers’ 2026 season, that scene is no longer limited to the immediate Los Angeles broadcast footprint: new distribution arrangements mean the same pregame ritual and every available game can be streamed beyond traditional cable boxes.
How can fans watch the Dodgers all season?
Direct answer: Multiple services will carry Dodgers coverage so fans can follow the team across local and national windows. One distributor has secured the rights to live-stream SportsNet LA’s coverage of every available Dodgers game for the 2026 Major League Baseball season, including pre- and postgame shows and related content. Locally, the regional channel will televise more than 140 regular-season games, beginning with the home opener that features the team’s 2025 World Series ring ceremony against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
For games not on national television, the regional channel carries the local package — described in the schedule as 145-plus games in total — and the team’s own over-the-top streaming pass offers access to the full local slate without a cable subscription in the Los Angeles market. National broadcasters retain exclusive windows as listed in the national schedule: a major network will present both a primetime package and afternoon matchups, a streaming platform will hold exclusive Sunday night access for certain games, and other national networks will carry midweek and weekend national games.
Broadcast personnel named in the broadcast plan include Joe Davis, who handles play-by-play, and Orel Hershiser, the former Dodgers Cy Young winner who serves on color commentary for the regional channel’s telecasts.
What will Fubo and national services stream for the 2026 season?
Direct answer: The streaming distributor’s deal covers the regional channel’s feed for every available game and associated programming, while other national platforms will continue to present select Dodgers appearances.
The live-streaming agreement extends to the regional network’s game broadcasts, pregame and postgame shows, and related series content that follows the club behind the scenes. The regional network will also debut a special episode of its reality-style series to kick off the season. Beyond that, the streaming distributor’s sports lineup includes league and national properties such as the out-of-market service MLB. TV, MLB Network, and other regional and national sports outlets listed in season packages.
National television and streaming windows noted in the season plan include a major broadcast return to primetime with dozens of national matchups, weekend national windows carried by a major broadcast partner and its cable sports channel, and additional national midweek games on a major sports network. A subscription streaming service will host a small number of Dodgers appearances across the year with no local blackouts for its calendar slots. Out-of-market fans are also served by the league’s out-of-market package, which covers games not subject to national exclusivity blackouts and remains a primary option for international viewers.
Roster context included in the season outlook highlights the team’s star lineup: Shohei Ohtani headlines an offense led by Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman, and Yoshinobu Yamamoto is noted as a World Series MVP on the mound. New roster additions listed for the season include Kyle Tucker and Edwin Diaz, each described as bolstering the club’s depth.
On opening night, the home opener broadcast will include the banner-raising and the ring ceremony tied to the club’s most recent championship, an event now available to streaming audiences through the combined regional-feed and national-window plan.

As distribution shifts, the human reality is simple: more households can watch the same moments — the banner raising, a closer’s late-inning save, or a starter’s big night — whether on a cable set, an over-the-top subscription, or an out-of-market stream. The season schedule and rights lineup map who can see those moments and where they will appear, and the combination of regional telecasts, a dedicated OTT pass, national windows, and a live-streaming distributor aims to make virtually every game reachable for fans wherever they are.
The home opener tableau returns in the closing image: the family in the living room watches the banner drop into place, aware that the season they follow can be streamed in new ways — a small change in how people gather that may alter how the season is experienced, game by game.
