The Rangers ended the regular season third in the American League West with a 78-84 record. Now, fans will have to wait and see if the 2025 season will bring postseason games for the Rangers. Learn how to catch the action here. <\/p>\n<p>What channels are Texas Rangers games on?<\/p>\n<p>Nationally televised games are broadcast on ESPN, Fox, Fox Sports 1, MLB Network, and TBS. FanDuel Sports Network Southwest, the <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-regional-sports-networks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">regional sports network<\/a> (RSN), offers more local coverage for Texas area fans. Most, if not all, of these channels can be found on live TV streaming services like DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>DIRECTV STREAMFuboHulu + Live TVSling TVYouTube TVFanDuel Sports Network Southwest\u2714\u2714ESPN\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714Fox\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714*\u2714Fox Sports 1\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714MLB Network\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714TBS\u2714\u2714\u2714\u2714*Local channels only available in select locations<\/p>\n<p>How to watch the Texas Rangers on DIRECTV STREAM<\/p>\n<p>Suggested Plan: Choice<\/p>\n<p>Price: $114.99<\/p>\n<p>Free Trial: Yes, 5-Days<\/p>\n<p>DIRECTV STREAM\u2019s variety of <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/directv-stream-plans-pricing-channels\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">packages<\/a> allows Rangers fans to choose the best one for their specific needs. The Choice plan grants access to everything you\u2019d need to watch both locally and nationally aired games.<\/p>\n<p>Each DIRECTV STREAM plan includes the basic channels you need to catch the Texas Rangers\u2019 nationally televised games: <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-espn-and-espn2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ESPN<\/a>, Fox, FS1, and TBS. One of DIRECTV STREAMS\u2019s most notable features is the availability of RSNs at no extra cost. You will have to upgrade to the Choice package to make use of it, but that means you will also be able to enjoy <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-mlb-network\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MLB Network<\/a> coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Unlimited storage is yet another DIRECTV STREAM perk, but there are a few caveats. Your recordings will only be saved for up to nine months, and the storage only has the capacity for 30 shows at a time. On the plus side, there is unlimited streaming at home, which is perfect for a larger household. The three out-of-home streams are also very useful on the go.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Watch the Texas Rangers on Fubo<\/p>\n<p>Suggested Plan: Pro<\/p>\n<p>Price: $84.99*<\/p>\n<p>Free Trial: Yes, 7-Days<\/p>\n<p>*Regional Sports Fee may apply<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/track.flexlinkspro.com\/g.ashx?foid=156074.5119.377812&amp;trid=1491266.176972&amp;foc=16&amp;fot=9999&amp;fos=6\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"(opens in a new tab)\">Fubo<\/a> has a <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/fubotv-packages-and-pricing\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">variety of packages<\/a> to fit any budget, including a Pro plan and an Elite plan. The Pro plan carries the basic staples for any baseball fan: ESPN, Fox, and <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-fs1-and-fs2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FS1<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Like DIRECTV STREAM, Fubo also offers <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-bally-sports-southwest\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">FanDuel Sports Network Southwest<\/a> and the good news is you don\u2019t need to upgrade for access. On the downside, subscribers are subject to a regional sports fee, depending on their location. Another drawback is the omission of <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/how-to-watch-tbs\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TBS<\/a> from the lineup and an upgrade required to access MLB Network, so you might miss games that are aired on that channel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Fubo now offers unlimited Cloud DVR space and recordings never expire.

The Orange &amp; Blue plan is the most practical for baseball fans. It might also be worthwhile to purchase the sports add-on, which includes the MLB Network.<\/p>\n<p>Sling TV\u2019s 50 hours of DVR storage is a major drawback when compared to the unlimited capacity offered by services like Hulu and DIRECTV STREAM. There are also no RSNs, so this option may be better for Rangers fans looking for casual coverage. Sling TV is still a formidable rival, though, when you consider the far cheaper price compared to other <a href=\"https:\/\/sportsnaut.com\/best-sports-streaming-services\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sports streamers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the Texas Rangers on YouTube TV<\/p>\n<p>Suggested Plan: Base Plan<\/p>\n<p>Price: $82.99<\/p>\n<p>Free Trial: Yes, 7-Days<\/p>\n<p>YouTube TV\u2019s singular base package offers ESPN, Fox, FS1, and TBS to watch Texas Rangers games.
