MLB games this week stream across seven different US platforms — more than any single week in the sport's history. The 2026 rights realignment means a Monday night game might be on ESPN, Tuesday on TBS, Wednesday on Apple, Friday on Apple again, Saturday on FOX, and Sunday on NBC. This is why a weekly viewer's guide exists.

Did You Know
KBO cheerleading isn't a half-inning break — it's a full-time career with choreographed chants, drum lines, and organized crowd singing throughout the entire game. Each KBO club employs a dedicated cheer squad and a professional "cheermaster" who leads the stadium through the ninth inning. It's the most intentionally entertaining in-game experience in professional baseball anywhere on Earth. Free on SOOP. Hit play.

Did You Know
Taiwan beat Japan 4-0 at Tokyo Dome to win the 2024 Premier12 — the first time a team not named Japan, Korea, or the United States has won a WBSC premier tournament on home soil like that. Nobody in America noticed. CPBL has been the quiet story of international baseball's 2020s.

Did You Know
Italy's 2026 WBC semifinal run — led by manager Francisco Cervelli — was powered almost entirely by Serie A veterans and Italian-American dual citizens who had come up through this league. When Italy beat the Netherlands and Venezuela in pool play to advance, most of those roster spots came from FIBS clubs you can watch today for free on YouTube. The next Cervelli roster is being built right now.
