Where did you find this?  Didn’t see an app in the IOS store

It basically uses the MLB app. I googled where to sign up and it goes through mlb.com.

I cut the cord long ago, so my Baseball has come through Fanduel/Bally sports streaming in the past. I went through the maze on MLB.com the first or second day it was available and signed up. It has worked on my Samsung phone perfectly through the MLB app, and my TV as well.

On my Samsung 65" 4K TV (2024 Vintage), I simply searched for the MLB app, found and installed it on the TV . I logged into the app on my tv, and scanned the displayed QR Code and activated the app. That was it, It found the DSN subscription and has worked perfectly ever since. The picture quality is fantastic, and it looks like a 4K signal, although I'm not totally sure. The pricing is identical to my last year's Fanduel subscription.

Between over the air, streaming, and Samsung TV which come through my internet connection on the TV, I am just shy of 500 channels plus the streaming. Life is good.

I also have a 65" Samsung and I swear it has a much better picture watching the MLB app than all of the other streaming channels. Crystal clear. And I had the same easy time installing the MLB app and getting the Detroit feed.

Anyone know what the rules are in terms of multiple live views at the same time? I'm asking for... uh... for a  friend... yeah...

Seriously though my brother subscribed to Bally/FanDuel for the RedWings games and shared it with my Mother so she could watch the Tigers and they split the cost. Given that it was just the two of them and Bally/FanDuel apparently allowed two simultaneous views that worked out well for them. Can you do the same thing with DSN?

If it's anything like MLB.TV, my brother and my dad have mine and I run into issues sometimes, but not often. If I do, I just call them and remind them whose password it is and who is the bigger Tigers fan, and they drop off 😄
