How to watch without cable
The 14 games on ABC, CW and CBS are free over the air with an antenna. Our picks: Philips rabbit ears, amplified indoor antenna or long-range indoor antenna. The ESPN, TNT and truTV games need a cable or live TV streaming service. For one bill that covers the broadcast networks and cable channels, Fubo is the closest thing to cable; check its lineup for your ZIP code first.
