At some point, a streaming service will purchase the broadcast rights to one of the major pro sports. For a preview of that future, tune into the Brewers game against the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday at 1:10 p.m. – which will be broadcast exclusively on YouTube.
The game is a part of a new streaming agreement between Major League Baseball and YouTube, broadcasting 13 games exclusively on the platform – complete with pregame and postgame shows, produced by MLB Network – during the second half of the 2019 season. Last season, the MLB struck a similar deal with Facebook, with multiple games – two featuring the Brewers – broadcast exclusively via Facebook.
Watching the stream is simple: just go to YouTube.com/MLB on your mobile device, smart TV or laptop, or search "MLB" on YouTube, and the game should be available right there for streaming. Those with the YouTube TV subscription service can also find the game on the "MLB Game of the Week Live on YouTube" channel – however, neither a YouTube TV subscription nor even a YouTube account are necessary to watch the Brewers-Twins game on Wednesday.
As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
