All four to seven games of the 2026 World Series will air on FOX at 8 p.m. ET in the US.
Where to watch the World Series in the US
FOX is available over-the-air, so there’s a good chance you’ll be able to get it with an antenna. If you don’t have an antenna or cable, you can catch the entire series with a streaming service. FOX offers a direct streaming counterpart, FOX One, which costs $20 a month and is available through the FOX website.
If you’re in the market for something with channels beyond just FOX, a live TV streaming service can help you out. YouTube TV and Fubo are two of our top FOX-friendly recommendations right now.
FOX is available in YouTube TV ‘s Main and Sports plans, which offer 100+ and 30+ channels, respectively. YouTube TV’s Main plan typically costs $83 a month, but a limited-time deal will knock down the first five months for first-time users to just $68 a month after a free trial.
FOX is also available in multiple Fubo plans, including the flagship Fubo Pro. Pro, which offers 200+ channels, normally costs $89 a month, but new customers can get $25 off their first month after a free trial.
