    Have Direct TV satellite in Houston. Doesn't seem to be a way to buy mlb.tv for a month for a reasonable fee. Will be in Chicago and Wisconsin.

    I would imagine that you could use Direct TV's app and just log into your account.

    Link provided by Tochiee in the how are you watching the rockets thread.

    after that,

    The best one is "The str****a*t" sometimes you have to refresh.
    Make sure you have adblock though.

    If you use T Mobile as your cell provider, sign up for free MLB.tv.

    This also works but if he pays for Direct TV might as well just use that instead.

    Fubo 7 day free trial could get you half way there.

    I'm pretty sure it pops up every Tuesday in the TMobile Tuesdays app.

    Really? I know it was at the beginning of the season, and then I saw it again around the halfway mark. Admittedly, I don't open the app every Tuesday, though. So that's cool if they're offering it throughout the year.

    Last time I tried the DirecTV app, it told me the game was blacked out. Pretty sure it was a road game too.
