The Minnesota Twins have introduced a new broadcasting plan for the 2025 season, ensuring fans across Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and western Wisconsin can enjoy all their games without blackouts. The announcement highlights various ways fans can access these matches, including through cable, satellite, and streaming services.
According to the team's official statement, the upcoming season will be accessible via numerous platforms. Fans residing in designated regions will be able to view every regular-season game live or on-demand. These broadcasts will be available not only through traditional television channels but also through digital streaming services such as DIRECTV, Xfinity, Spectrum, Midco, and Fubo. Additionally, fans have subscription options like an annual package for $99.99, a monthly fee of $19.99, or a comprehensive MLB.TV subscription costing $199.99 that includes out-of-market games.
This initiative aims to enhance fan experience by providing flexibility in how they engage with the sport. Joe Pohlad, Executive Chair of the Twins, expressed excitement about this development, stating it marks a significant leap forward in accessibility for baseball enthusiasts within "Twins Territory." The service, presented by Progressive, allows fans to watch games at their convenience, starting from Opening Day.
Beyond local broadcasts, the Twins are also scheduled for 11 national broadcasts this year, airing on platforms like Apple TV, FOX, and Roku. This wider reach underscores the team's commitment to expanding its audience and enhancing engagement.
The introduction of Twins.TV signifies a new chapter in sports broadcasting, offering unprecedented access to fans. By integrating multiple viewing options and eliminating blackout dates, the Twins aim to foster a closer connection with their supporters, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to cheer on their favorite team regardless of location or schedule constraints.
