The Athletic has live coverage of the New York Yankees vs. the San Francisco Giants Opening Day game.
Just a decade ago, if you were a Yankees fan in New York, you just needed a cable subscription to watch every regular-season game and the playoffs.
Now, in 2026, it could require navigating 10 networks, five (or more) subscriptions and approaching a thousand dollars to see all the team’s games if it goes deep into October.
It is a prime example of the angst of the modern sports fan.
Where are my team’s games on? Do I have that service? And how much does it cost?
