DirecTV gets you access to Fox and FS1, the channels you need to watch the World Series, plus the CW, ABC, CBS, Fox, ACC Network, Big Ten Network, SEC Network and plenty more local regional sports networks.

DirecTV also offers unlimited Cloud DVR storage and access to ESPN+’s new streaming tier, ESPN Unlimited. That’s all part of why we named it the best cable TV alternative without a contract.

The best part is that you can try all this out for free for five days. So if you’re interested in a live TV streaming service but aren’t ready to commit, we recommend starting with DirecTV.

We named Fubo the best live TV streaming service for sports, and it’s not just because it’s a great place to watch the World Series. Fubo TV gives you access to 100-plus live channels, including Fox and FS1. The cheapest plan starts at $85/month, making the live TV streaming service a significant investment. However, the inclusion of ESPN Unlimited, a $30/month value, is a great deal if you watch sports year-round. Fubo subscribers also get access to unlimited cloud DVR storage.

Currently, the platform is offering a free trial, allowing you to explore everything it has to offer risk-free. 

Hulu’s live TV tier includes access to live TV channels like Fox, Fox Deportes, ESPN, ABC, NBC, and more. That means you can watch this year’s World Series live as it happens, and enjoy over 95 other channels — not to mention take advantage of all the great shows streaming on Hulu, Disney+ and ESPN Select, all of which are included at no extra charge. 

You’ll also enjoy access to unlimited DVR storage, the ability to stream on multiple devices and more. Right now, you can get your first three months of Hulu + Live TV for $65/month. This special rate ends at 6PM ET/3PM PT on November 5. 

Hulu + Live TV starts at $90/month after this deal ends.

Fox One is exactly what it sounds like — a one-stop streaming destination for the entire universe of Fox content, including a ton of sports (Fox Sports, Fox FS1, FS2, Fox Deportes, Big Ten Network), news and opinion (Fox News, Fox Business, Fox Weather) and local Fox stations, too. That means you can watch every World Series game in one place.

Fox One offers live programming, as well as shows and movies on demand. At launch, the base price for Fox One costs $20 a month, or you can save with an annual subscription for $200. You can also bundle Fox One with ESPN’s newly revamped streaming service for $40/month.
