With UK's basketball season all but over, it's time to turn the page to baseball.
I have MLB.TV. We all know of the blackout BS. I have no problem finding streams for Reds games, just assinine that I have to do that while also paying for MLB.TV so I can watch any other game. I'm aware of VPNs, may consider that route but it also seems pointless as I would still be parked in front of my computer instead of my big screen, so why pay for a VPN?
The other two issues are the Fox Sports regional contracts are all up in the air right now. So it appears none of the streaming platforms have them right now.
None of that would matter, as I already have my solution to watch the Reds. What makes all of this an issue is the ability to watch UK baseball. SECN+. Obviously no one is streaming college baseball online, that I'm aware of.
So that's a whole lot of TL;DR for me to ask you guys if you know of any legit paid streaming option where I'd be able to get both FS regional and SECN+
Not interested in regular cable. Don't watch any TV at all that isn't sports related.

LINKTry Fubo TV. It's a streaming service geared towards sports first

They don't offer FS regional. I guess absolutely no one does at this point.
Reality this is more about getting SECN+ in tandem with the FS Ohio channel....I already have the means to watch the Reds. A lot of outfits don't offer SECN+, just SECN.
It's nice to sit on the deck, grill or smoke, and listen to the radio call. But Id like to be able to watch the Bat Cats and sync the radio broadcast like I do for our football and basketball games.
I'm guessing by the lack of responses I already have my answer....there is no present solution without getting cable. frick all that.

I love baseball, but the South Carolina team of 2017 taught me never to give up on basketball. They lost 6 of their last 9 games before the tournament including their last 2 to Bama and Ole Miss which neither made the dance.
Then ripped off 4 wins in a row against Marquette, Duke, Baylor and Florida to get to the final 4, and damn near beat Gonzaga to get to the championship game.
Especially Kentucky, who you know has a ton of talent and just needs to figure it out.

Who is your cell phone provider?
Most of Verizon's unlimited plans include access to ESPN+ for free now.

Does ESPN+ include SECN+? I hadn't even thought about signing up for that seperately. Honestly forgot it existed.
I know WatchESPN has/had it. Used to use HuluLive and Sling both when I quit paying for cable, my login got me that app and I was able to watch the Bat Cats.
I was under the impression SECN was not on ESPN+. Just a bunch of soccer, tennis, and B level sports. That might actually be a legit answer I'll go look. Thanks dude.

Yes, SEC+ is part of ESPN+. I used ESPN app to watch almost all the baseball games the last 2 years. We use Roku and I also stream it to the TV through the ESPN app on my tablet.

I just bought a brand new tablet specifically for the pending baseball season so I can chill on my deck and sip beer and watch. Precisely what spurred me starting this thread. Got my solution now. Hell yes.

Late reply but most TV providers include SEC Network Plus access as part of your cable/streaming subscription. I've got Youtube TV and can watch the SECN+ games on the ESPN app without anything other than my Youtube TV login.

Unless something has changed recently that I haven’t noticed, I believe YouTube TV has both
