Fans of Major League Baseball who are subscribed to Sling, or those now shopping for a live TV package to watch games, will be happy to know that Sling TV is currently offering a free preview of MLB TV.
Key Takeaways
- Sling TV is offering a free preview of MLB TV through April 2, 2026.
- The free preview is available to all monthly subscribers as well as those purchasing a short-term Pass.
- After the preview ends, subscribers can add MLB TV to their live TV package for $29.99/mo.
The free preview of MLB TV comes just in time for the start of the 2026 MLB season. Sling TV subscribers actually gained access to the free preview yesterday (March 26), in time for the league-wide Opening Day.
For those that have yet to catch it, the free preview is due to end on April 2, 2026, meaning it will continue to be accessible over the weekend and for a good portion of next week too.
Considering all 30 teams are scheduled to play at least one full series during the first week, the free preview should prove beneficial to all MLB fans, regardless of the team they support.
For reference, Sling’s MLB free preview is not only available to monthly Sling Orange, Sling Blue, and Orange + Blue subscribers, but also those who purchase a 1, 3, or 7 Day Pass between now and April 2.
Unlike the live TV service’s monthly plans, the 1, 3, and 7 Day Pass options offer a way to sign up to the Sling Orange live TV package for a short period of time, and without the need for an ongoing subscription.
For monthly subscribers who would prefer to retain access to MLB TV after the free preview comes to an end, MLB TV can be added to a Sling TV base live TV package for an additional $29.99 a month.
