With the Mets down to their final two outs and trailing by two runs, Pete Alonso stepped up to the plate and sent a ball over the right field fence to save New York from certain heartbreak. The three-run blast in Milwaukee gave the Mets a lead they wouldn’t relinquish and set up a clash against their NL East foes in the Philadelphia Phillies. The other NLDS matchup pits NL West rivals against one another, with the Los Angeles Dodgers set to take on the San Diego Padres.
In the American League, the top-seeded New York Yankees will take on the Kansas City Royals, and the Cleveland Guardians will face the Detroit Tigers in a matchup of AL Central teams.
The ALDS will be shown on TBS and Max. The NLDS will be shown on Fox and FS1. Looking ahead, the ALCS and NLCS will be on the same channels as each league’s division series. The 2024 World Series will be shown on Fox.
Up next for Pete Alsonso and the New York Mets are the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLDS.

How to watch the Wild Card round without cable
If you don’t have a cable or satellite TV subscription, you can watch all four Wild Card series with a live TV service. ABC, ESPN and ESPN2 are available on each of the five major streaming services, but not every service carries every local network in every area, so make sure to check each service using the links below to make sure it carries ABC where you live.
YouTube TV costs $73 a month and includes Fox, FS1 and TBS. Plug in your ZIP code on YouTube TV’s welcome page to see which local networks are available in your area.
Hulu Plus Live TV costs $77 a month and includes Fox, FS1 and TBS. On its live news page, you can enter your ZIP code under the “Can I watch local news in my area?” question at the bottom of the page to see which local channels you get.
Fubo’s basic plan costs $80 a month and includes Fox and FS1, but Fubo charges an RSN fee (either $12 a month if you get one RSN or $15 a month if you have two or more in your area) that raises the monthly charge to $92 or $95. NL fans will be disappointed to learn it does not offer TBS for the NLDS and NLCS.
Fubo is currently offering $30 off for the first month of some of its plans, which means you can get its base Pro plan for $62 or $65 to start. Click here to see which local channels you get.
Max will show the American League Division and Championship series but that’s it. You won’t be able to watch any of the NL playoff games or the World Series on Max.
All of the live TV streaming services above offer free trials, allow you to cancel anytime and require a solid internet connection. Looking for more information? Check out our live TV streaming services guide.
