Two days ago I published the Cincinnati Reds spring training tv and radio broadcast schedule here at Redleg Nation. Included in there were the games for Reds.tv, the new place to get the Reds games in the Cincinnati television broadcast market, as well as games that will be available through MLB.tv for other teams when they play the Reds, and of course which radio station will have each game (during spring training 700 WLW and 1360 WSAI will have games). As of the typing of this there are 10 Reds spring training games that will be available to watch in some form or fashion.
Today the Reds officially announced the spring training broadcast schedule for Reds.tv and it includes seven games. Of those seven games only three of them will actually be the “Reds” broadcast. Three of the games will be against Cleveland and will be from the Guardians feed that features their announcers and crew, and a game against the Brewers will be from the Milwaukee feed that has their broadcasting crew doing all of the work.
It is kind of amazing that in the year 2026 when anyone with a cell phone can live stream to the world, but a company worth of a billion dollars is only producing three spring training games of their own, and only broadcasting seven in total. You can probably stream your local high school baseball, basketball, or football games every week but here we are. It could be worse, though, as the Los Angeles Angels told their media today that they would not be broadcasting a single spring training game this year.
But on the bright side of only having seven games to be broadcast through Reds.tv is that all seven of those games will be free of charge. While you can already purchase Reds.tv for the 2026 season for $99.99 (if you are in the Reds market – see Reds.tv for more details on that), you can watch all seven of the Reds spring games they will broadcast for free. All you need is an MLB.com account or the MLB app.
The seven games that Reds.tv are offering up this year that are free of charge:
February 21st – Cleveland’s broadcastFebruary 28th – Milwaukee’s broadcastMarch 2nd – vs the Cubs – Reds broadcastMarch 8th – vs Arizona – Reds broadcastMarch 17th – Cleveland’s broadcastMarch 18th – vs Colorado – Reds broadcastMarch 22nd – Cleveland’s broadcast
