The two weekly MLB games that live stream on Apple TV Plus don’t cost anything extra, so they’re included in all subscriptions. The “Friday Night Baseball” games are exclusive to Apple, so you’ll need a subscription to watch them.
What you get in an Apple TV Plus subscription
Apple TV Plus (Monthly Plan)
Apple TV Plus has a limited lineup, but it’s less expensive than other ad-free services and offers a growing selection of critically acclaimed series you can’t stream anywhere else.
Apple TV Plus is ad-free, and all content is available for streaming on-demand or can be downloaded locally so you can watch it offline if you know you’ll be somewhere without internet access.
Apple’s streaming service is affordable because it has no back catalog — unlike Netflix, Apple has not mentioned licensing any external TV shows or movies for its new service. It’s all original content when it comes to the service’s on-demand offerings.
