Sling’s Blue package features more than 40 channels including live network feeds in select markets as well as several Fox channels. Sling’s Orange plan includes ESPN and more than 30 cable networks. Both plans normally cost $25 a month, but Sling is now offering the first three months of each package for $15 a month.

The MLB Network offers coverage of live games, news and highlights shows as well as documentaries about baseball. When live games air on the MLB Network on Tuesday and Friday nights, the MLB Network Strike Zone channel provides up-to-the-minute highlights and live look-ins of other games being played.
