Blackout checker

NBA & NHL: approximate home-market check by ZIP. MLB: MLB doesn't publish territory data, so we link you to MLB's official ZIP lookup.

ZIP + team → is it blacked out on the league's streaming package, and how to watch legally instead.

The rules we apply

MLB.TV: Live games of your local team(s) and national exclusives (e.g. the World Series on FOX) are blacked out on MLB.TV. Official blackout page MLB publishes an official ZIP lookup; our territory data doesn't cover MLB, so use theirs.
NBA League Pass: Games of teams in your home market, and national games (ESPN/ABC, NBC/Peacock, Prime Video), are blacked out live on League Pass. Official blackout page
ESPN (NHL out-of-market on ESPN Unlimited): Out-of-market NHL games stream in the ESPN app (ESPN Unlimited); your local team's games are blacked out there and air on the local channel instead. Official blackout page

Last checked: 2026-10-23. Home-market areas use 3-digit ZIP prefixes that are an approximation (the leagues set exact territories and don't publish them as data); near a border, confirm on the official page. Not legal advice; we never link to unofficial streams.
