You can now stream every Cardinals game. It’s a bit complicated but not difficult. I have the details below.

In a hurry? Depending on location, Cardinals fans can watch almost all of their games with one of these services:

Fubo: Get 150+ channels including FanDuel Sports Midwest. Fubo allows you to try out its service with a free trial.
DIRECTV: Comes with 125+ in its Choice Package with FanDuel Sports Midwest and all the channels you need for the playoffs. A 5-day free trial is now available for DIRECTV.
MLB.TV: Fans outside Missouri can watch almost every Cardinals game with this out-of-market package.

Whether it’s a good season or a bad one, Cardinal fans always show up for their team. That could mean watching the team play home games at Busch Stadium, following them out on the road, or making sure to catch the game on TV. Any way you look at it, the fans are always with their team.

Channels to Watch St Louis Cardinals

In the St Louis area, your local games will air on FanDuel Sports Midwest during the regular season. MLB.TV provides the same for fans outside the Cardinal’s media market.

Cardinals games also sometimes appear on national TV. These games can be found on MLB Network, ESPN, FS1, FOX, and TBS.

Sometimes games stream on ESPN+, but these games will also air on other channels. Some games stream exclusively on Apple TV+, so if you want to see every Cardinals game of the season, you will need to sign up with the service. But it is normally just a handful of games.

The following services will allow you to stream the vast majority of Cardinals games:

fubotv — ‡ Allows DVR functions while watching live and the games are available on-demand later.

You can connect with a range of streaming devices with these services. This includes Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, Chromecast, and even mobile devices. And many smart TVs are supported including Samsung and Android TV units.

Everything You Need to Know About the St Louis Cardinals

The St Louis Cardinals are one of baseball’s most storied franchises, having claimed 11 World Series titles, the most of any National League club. They only trail the New York Yankees’ 27 in all of Major League Baseball.

It is also one of MLB’s oldest as it first played in the American Association in 1882 before quickly dominating that league, securing four successive pennants from 1885 to 88. However, it would not be until 1926 for the club to win another pennant — its first in the NL. That was also St Louis’ initial World Series title. The Cardinals defeated the Yankees in seven games that October.

The franchise’s other World Series titles were won in 1931, 1934, 1942, 1944, 1946, 1964, 1967, 1982, 2006, and 2011.

The Cardinals have had plenty of success since 2000, recording a winning record every season except for two (2007, 2023) and making the playoffs 16 times over the 24 seasons since. NL pennants were won in 2004, 2006, 2011, and 2013, bringing that total for the club to 19.

In 2024, the Cardinals had a winning season and came in second in the Central Division but it wasn’t enough to get a Wild Card spot.

Our Choice

For Cardinals fans, Fubo is the top pick, especially if you’re in the area. It gives you FanDuel Sports Midwest for local games, and if you’re out of market, you can easily add MLB.tv. I checked out a few alternatives, but Fubo stood out for its smooth streaming, easy interface, and unlimited DVR. It works on pretty much any device, so you can watch wherever you are. Compared to Sling or DIRECTV Stream, Fubo offers a better combo of channels and features. If you’re outside St. Louis, MLB.tv is the perfect add-on to complete the experience.
