So, I’ve been trying to figure out this whole Bally Sports thing. Like, where can I actually watch it? I wanted to catch some local games – you know, NBA, MLB, NHL, the usual. I’m not trying to miss out on my teams!

First, I did some digging around. Turns out, Bally Sports is on a couple of the big streaming services. I found out that both DirecTV and fuboTV have it. That’s cool because they both have different packages, so you can kinda pick what works best for you. I checked my area, and yep, both offer Bally Sports networks as a standard thing. That’s a relief! It means I can watch a bunch of different sports, plus other live TV stuff, which is a nice bonus.
Then I looked into what’s NOT available. Seems like Sling TV, YouTube TV, and Hulu Live don’t carry Bally Sports. Something about carriage fights? I guess these companies couldn’t agree on a deal or something. That’s a bummer for folks who use those services.
I noticed that in a bunch of places, Fan Duel Sports Network (which used to be Bally Sports, apparently) shows the games. But, get this – it’s not on YouTube TV! That’s weird, right? I guess it all comes down to different companies and their agreements. They do have some sort of standalone subscription thing on their website and app, but I haven’t really checked that out yet.
Oh, and I also found out about Bally Sports+. It’s like the official streaming service just for Bally Sports. I guess if you’re ONLY interested in those channels, that might be a good option. But I’m still kinda leaning towards DirecTV or fuboTV since they offer more than just sports.
So, yeah, that’s where I’m at with my Bally Sports investigation. It’s a bit of a maze, but it looks like I have a couple of solid options to watch my local teams. I just gotta decide which service fits my needs and budget the best.

- Checked if Bally Sports is on streaming services.
- Confirmed DirecTV and fuboTV carry Bally Sports.
- Discovered Sling TV, YouTube TV, and Hulu Live do NOT carry Bally Sports.
- Realized there is a Bally Sports+ app.
- Made a decision to choose from DirecTV and fuboTV.
It wasn’t too hard to find this stuff out. A bit of searching around, reading some articles, and comparing what each service offers. Now I just need to make a choice!
