Breaking Sports News: MLB, Twins announce TV, streaming partnership

Note: Breaking Sports News is powered by Perrault Construction, the trusted roofing, siding and window company in Duluth.

For the 2025 season, Major League Baseball will produce and distribute local games for the Minnesota Twins, offering fans more ways to watch the Twins on TV or via digital streaming.

Last season, Twins games reached around 1.08 million households. With MLB's direct-to-consumer streaming, the reach could expand to about 4.40 million households, a 307% increase.

The Twins' deal will mirror MLB's production and distribution of games for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Colorado Rockies and San Diego Padres in the 2024 season. MLB secured cable and satellite distribution deals and provided direct-to-consumer streaming at Dbacks.TV, Padres.TV, and Rockies.TV.

MLB's local game production last year featured enhancements typically seen in national broadcasts, such as Ump Cam, live looks into the MLB Replay Operations Center, Wire Cam, on-field pregame and postgame locations, a new RF camera for a shallow depth-of-field effect, and greater access, including player interviews during games.

Since 2009, MLB has run the MLB Network, producing live games for 16 seasons, earning critical acclaim and 42 National Sports Emmy Awards in 13 categories. MLB pioneered live-streaming regular season games on August 26, 2002. In 2024, fans streamed a record 14.5 billion minutes of live games and content on MLB.TV.

Details on how and where to watch will be released as the 2025 season approaches.
