Spring training is just around the corner, which means that Opening Day isn't far behind. The Dodgers will suit up for Opening Day on March 28 to start a series at home against the Cardinals, and they've given fans more to look forward to than any other team in baseball. Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, and Teoscar Hernández will all make their first appearances in Dodger blue, but if you can't make it to Dodger Stadium, you'll need to know how to watch them.

The baseball season is long, and the list of potential ways to watch it is no different. The Dodgers have simplified things for fans a bit compared to other teams, but there are still a host of exceptions that are just as confusing as you'd think. Here are a few tips to make everything a little clearer.

How to watch the Dodgers on cable in 2024

The Dodgers, thankfully, avoided the Bally Sports drama this offseason and have the ever-faithful SportsNet LA for most of your cable needs. Their coverage extends from southern to central California and also includes the San Joaquin Valley, the Las Vegas Valley, and Hawaii. A certain selection of games will also be available nationwide, including eight day games on FS1 or FOX throughout the season, three on ESPN as part of Sunday Night Baseball, and a few more on TBS, though those dates have yet to be announced.

How to watch the Dodgers without cable in 2024

Without cable, the one and only place to catch Dodgers games broadcast on SportsNet LA is DirecTV Stream. FOX, ESPN, and TBS games can all be found on DirecTV Stream, FuboTV (with the exception of TBS), Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, Vidgo, and YouTube TV.
