The baseball team representing the Rocky Mountains is the appropriately named Rockies. Colorado is most known for having the highest-scoring ballpark in the majors, Coors Field. This is due in part to low humidity but mostly the low atmospheric pressure due to its elevation of 5,200 feet. This is far above the second-highest stadium, Phoenix’s Chase Field, which is at 1,100 feet.

As for the team itself, it followed back-to-back playoff appearances in 2017 and 2018 with three straight losing seasons. But Rockies fans are hoping that the squad will return to being a playoff team soon.

Colorado fans who want to watch their team play on a regular basis should make sure that they can watch its AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain broadcasts. Fans in the Rockies’ blackout area have two choices: DIRECTV STREAM ($108.99/mo) and FuboTV ($88.98/mo). Those outside this area can choose MLB.TV ($24.99/mo).

About the Rockies

The Rockies joined the National League’s West Division, where it has been ever since, as an expansion team in 1993. It played its first two seasons at Mile High Stadium, an NFL facility. But then moved into its current home, Coors Field. Both stadiums were built in Denver.

Interestingly, despite Colorado having never won a division title, it has an NL pennant to its name. The Rockies just snuck into the postseason in 2007, finishing tied for the league’s lone wild card spot. They went on to beat the San Diego Padres in a tiebreaker game to get in.

The winning then continued as Colorado swept the Philadelphia Phillies in the NL Division Series and the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NL Championship Series. However, the Boston Red Sox returned the favor in the World Series, sweeping it.

More recently, the Rockies went 1-5 in postseason appearances in 2017 and 2018 before going 71-91, 26-34, and 74-87 in the next three regular seasons.

Meanwhile, the 2021 campaign was a perfect example of how much better the team tends to play at home than away as it was 48-33 at Coors Field and 26-54 on the road. If home form had held away from Denver, the Rockies would have had 96 wins. However, if they had their away winning percentage at home as well, they would have lost 109 games.

Rockies TV Channels

AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain is where local fans can watch the Colorado Rockies play the vast majority of their games. This channel is available in all or part of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Arizona, California, South Dakota, Kansas, and Nebraska. But note that Rockies broadcasts are not available in all of those areas — in particular in areas that have their own MLB team.

When Colorado is not being shown on its regional sports network, you can usually find the game on ESPN, TBS, Fox Sports 1 (FS1), MLB Network, ABC, NBC, or Fox.

Another possibility is that the contest might not be shown on any channel at all. Some games will be streamed exclusively by Peacock Premium or Apple TV+ instead.

Watching the Colorado Rockies

There are many ways to watch Colorado Rockies games live.

Antenna

An antenna provides you with the means to watch all Colorado Rockies games that are being shown on Fox, ABC, and NBC. In most cases, these instances will consist of Saturday contests on Fox. It is not clear at this point that any regular-season games will air on these channels, however.

Also keep in mind that the biggest games that the Rockies could potentially play, World Series contests, will be available to watch through these means as those would be on Fox.

See our HD Antenna Guide for more information.

Streaming

You have the most options for watching the Colorado Rockies via streaming.

Live TV Streaming Services

FuboTV ($88.98/mo) provides local access to AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain, but note that this may not extend to many in Colorado and Wyoming, so make sure to see if the channel is available in your area before deciding to purchase. Amongst FuboTV’s channels are ESPN, FS1, ABC, NBC, and Fox while you will need to get an add-on to watch the MLB Network. TBS is not available.

Its base plan comes with 1000 hours of cloud DVR storage and streaming on up to ten devices at once. For more information, see our FuboTV review.

Note: FuboTV currently provides a much smaller coverage area for AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain than DIRECTV STREAM. According to FuboTV, “If you are in an area where the Colorado Rockies are the only team available — including Denver, Colorado Springs/Pueblo, Grand Junction/Montrose, and surrounding areas, AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain is not currently available. We expect to launch the channel in these markets in the future.”

DIRECTV STREAM (formerly AT&T TV) offers a wide selection of regional sports networks throughout the country. Those in Denver receive AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain and Altitude Sports. The former carries almost all of the games that the Colorado Rockies play. Do note that you need to subscribe to its Choice plan ($108.99/mo) to receive these. You will also get TBS, ESPN, FS1, MLB Network, NBC, ABC, and Fox.

All plans come with unlimited cloud DVR storage (online sign-up required) and streaming on unlimited devices at once. See our DIRECTV STREAM review for more information.

There are other streaming services to consider that do not offer AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain to anyone but that do feature all or most of the other channels that periodically show Rockies games. These include Hulu + Live TV ($76.99/mo), Sling TV ($55.00/mo), Vidgo ($69.99/mo), and YouTube TV ($72.99/mo).

Specialty Streaming Services

MLB is showing an increasing number of games only on streaming services. But the number is still small.

• Apple TV+ ($4.99/mo): Has started offering exclusive streams of baseball games on Friday evenings. The Rockies will periodically feature in these, initially appearing on June 3, 2022.
• Peacock Premium ($4.99/mo): May offer exclusive streams of Colorado Rockies games. The ones that they do will likely be on Sundays. (Peacock review)
• ESPN+ ($9.99/mo): Provides regular streams to Colorado games, but keep in mind its blackout regulations. These may result in most or all Rockies games not being available for you if you live in Colorado or surrounding areas. (ESPN+ review)

MLB.TV

If you are outside of the Colorado Rockies’ blackout area, you should consider subscribing to MLB.TV ($24.99/mo). Doing so will grant you access to all AT&T SportsNet Rocky Mountain-broadcast games. There is one exception: contests when the Rockies face a team local to you. For example, if you are a Colorado fan in Philadelphia, you cannot watch Rockies-Phillies streams on MLB.TV.

Note that this blackout region is significant, covering Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, and New Mexico and portions of Idaho, South Dakota, and Nebraska. Also note that MLB.TV does not include any playoff games, so you will generally need to use a live TV streaming service with it.

TVs and Devices to Live Stream Colorado Rockies Games

FuboTV, DIRECTV STREAM, and MLB.TV allow you to stream games on most devices that are in use these days. They all support:

DIRECTV STREAM offers its own device, which can make things easy since you can get support directly from them.

MLB.TV and Fubo also support Android TV-compatible smart TVs and Xbox One gaming systems. MLB.TV supports PlayStation units as well.

FuboTV also supports Hisense smart TVs, LG smart TVs, and Vizio SmartCast TVs.
