MLB.tv Blackout Workaround 2020

MLB.TV Starts Feb. 28, 2020 If you're like me, you're an every year subscriber to MLB.TV. I just got the email this afternoon announcing the return of the streaming service for 2020. Yearly subscribers will auto-renew on February 28th. The price this season is $121.99. If you only care about having access to your favorite team's games you get a single-team subscription for $93.99. If you are a current student or active military, you can qualify for a 35% discount on these prices . What about the blackouts? Sadly (but not surprisingly) the blackouts appear to still be in place for this season. There have been some rumblings in the past few months that the blackout restrictions could start going away as early as this year, but the email received today explicitly mentions the blackout restriction policy. I will stick with the same plan I've been using for years: using Unlocator to get around the blackouts. For more info on this method you can

Here we are in the year 2020 and MLB.TV blackouts are still a thing. 🤦‍♂️ It's disappointing, but fortunately you don't have to live with blackouts if you learn how to avoid them. I've managed to watch MLB.TV without blackouts since 2009 and I started this blog to help people get access to the games they paid for when they purchased their MLB.TV subscription. Over the years the I've used various methods to get around the blackouts, but the easiest I've found is to use the smart DNS service from Unlocator . *Note: If you sign up for Unlocator via a link on on this page, I may earn an affiliate commission. Here's a video of me watching a blacked-out game on Opening Day. What is "smart DNS?" Think of it as a way of tricking MLB.TV into believing you are located outside of the United States, where games are not subject to blackout restrictions. Why smart DNS and not a VPN? You may have have heard of using a VPN
