Major League Baseball will produce and distribute all local Cincinnati Reds game broadcasts during the 2026 season.
Under this new agreement, fans in the team’s home television territory will be able to watch all locally distributed Reds games via cable and satellite providers or stream digitally on Reds.TV without blackouts.
“Partnering with MLB will allow fans to continue watching Reds games on the platforms they’ve always used, including cable and satellite, as well as direct‑to‑consumer streaming with no blackouts,” said Doug Healy, Reds Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. “MLB’s production expertise and resources ensure our fans will enjoy a high-quality viewing experience for every game.”
Reds.TV subscriptions will be available soon. Prices are expected to be $99.99 for the season or $19.99 per month.
Information on cable and satellite providers, including specific channel locations, will be announced at a later date along with the Spring Training broadcast schedule.
In recent seasons, MLB-produced local games have incorporated national-level innovations, including live drones, Wire Cam, RF cameras with a shallow depth-of-field cinematic look, and two Umpire Cam formats—the mask-mounted camera behind home plate and the chest-mounted camera in the field. These broadcasts have also delivered unprecedented player access, introducing multiple first-of-their-kind moments for MLB local coverage.
