Phillies Game Live Today: Watch, Listen and Score Updates

Regular season games per team: 162 (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication)) · Division: National League East · Home ballpark: Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphia (Delaware Online (USA Today Network)) · Flagship radio station: 94.1 FM (WIP)

Eight facts anchor the rest of this guide, and each one carries a named source you can check before you plan a viewing.

Is the Phillies game live today?

Not every date is a game date. The Phillies play 162 regular-season games (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication)), so the first check is the date, and the second check is the official listing for that date.

Which official sources list today’s Phillies game time?

• MLB’s Phillies schedule page is the league’s own listing, but the cached version reviewed here was a filter-based table with no specific game entries (MLB.com (official league site))
• Game-day guides from Delaware Online list the start time and channel for each date, such as 1:05 p.m. ET for the Sept. 7, 2026 game at Citizens Bank Park (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))

Which TV channels show Phillies games live?

• Most games air on NBC Sports Philadelphia, while selected national broadcasts run on NBC, FOX, FS1, ESPN, TBS, Apple TV, and Peacock (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication))
• Check the channel for each date, because the routes below carry different slices of the schedule.

Eight routes, one pattern: each one carries a different slice of the season, so the right choice depends on whether a game is national, in-market, or out-of-market.

How can I watch the Phillies game live on YouTube?

The reporting reviewed here points to YouTube access through a live TV service, not a separate free feed of Phillies games. Yahoo Sports (game-day guide) lists NBC Sports Philadelphia on YouTube TV among its streaming options.

What do I need to stream a Phillies game live?

• A live TV service that carries NBC Sports Philadelphia, such as Fubo, Hulu, Peacock, or YouTube TV (Yahoo Sports (game-day guide))
• The NBC Sports Philadelphia website or app for in-market access, per the same game-day guide
• A check of the stream title and channel before you press play, because the sources reviewed here do not confirm that every YouTube upload is a full broadcast

YouTube TV is the contested route. WhereIsTheGame.com (sports aggregator) states that NBC Sports Philadelphia is not on YouTube TV in the local market, which conflicts with the Yahoo listing.

The implication: YouTube helps only if your live TV service already carries NBC Sports Philadelphia, so confirm that before you search for a stream.

How can I listen to the Phillies game live on the radio?

Is the Phillies game live on 94.1 radio today?

• WIP 94.1 FM is the English flagship radio station for Phillies broadcasts (MLB.com (official league site))
• Delaware Online’s game-day guides list radio on 94WIP and WDEL 101.7 FM/1150 AM for games such as Sept. 7, 2026 (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))
• Whether a game is on the air today depends on that date’s schedule, which the MLB.com schedule check could not confirm

Does the Phillies radio broadcast call every pitch?

• The reviewed sources list the flagship stations and game times but do not describe the call style or pitch-by-pitch coverage
• Confirm the coverage on the station or team site before you plan around it

For Spanish-language listeners, iHeart Radio & Rumba 106.1 FM is the listed flagship (MLB.com (official league site)). Out-of-market listeners have free options, according to Free Sports Radio (free radio directory), though station-level restrictions apply.

The implication: Radio is the lowest-commitment route, but the station sets the coverage details, so check the game time before you tune in.

Where can I check the Phillies game live score?

Score pages and broadcasts answer different questions. A broadcast shows the game, while a score page shows its state at each moment, so the two are companions rather than substitutes.

Where can I find the Phillies broadcast schedule for today?

• MLB’s Phillies schedule page is the official starting point, though the cached version reviewed here returned a dynamic table with no specific game entries (MLB.com (official league site))
• Yahoo Sports publishes per-game guides with channel, streaming, and trial details, such as its Sept. 2, 2026 Diamondbacks guide (Yahoo Sports (game-day guide))
• Syracuse.com’s July 21, 2026 guide lists the start time and national channel for a Dodgers game (Syracuse.com (Advance Local news))

The reviewed sources do not measure how far score updates trail the broadcast, so treat a score page as a companion to the feed you are watching.

The implication: A score page shows the game’s state fastest, but the schedule is still the check that confirms a game exists on that date.

Can I listen to Phillies games live for free?

Free access exists, but it comes in limited doses. PhillySportsWire (sports media publication) reports that Opening Day and select games are free on MLB.tv, and Free Sports Radio (free radio directory) states that Phillies games can be heard live for free.

Are Phillies games available with a free trial?

• DIRECTV Choice offers a 5-day free trial before $94.99 per month (Syracuse.com (Advance Local news))
• Fubo offers a free trial to new subscribers (Fubo (live TV streaming vendor))
• Apple TV offers a free trial with an email or Apple ID, then $12.99 per month (Yahoo Sports (game-day guide))
• New MLB.tv buyers who purchase through ESPN receive a one-month free trial of ESPN Unlimited (Sports Media Watch (TV distribution specialist))

Trial lengths for Fubo, YouTube TV, and Apple TV were not confirmed by primary sources, so check each provider’s terms before you sign up.

Where can I watch the Phillies live broadcast if I am outside Philadelphia?

• MLB.tv carries every regular-season game live or on-demand for viewers outside the home market (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication))
• Blacked-out games become available on demand about 90 minutes after the game ends on MLB.tv (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication))
• Phillies.TV is in-market only, so it does not solve the out-of-market problem (Sports Media Watch (TV distribution specialist))

Steps to pick a free or paid route for a given game

1. Check the official schedule or a game-day guide for the date and channel.
2. If you are in the Philadelphia market, check NBC Sports Philadelphia, Fubo, or DIRECTV for that channel.
3. If you are outside Philadelphia, check the MLB.tv blackout status for that game.
4. Start with radio for a free listen, then compare trial terms before you sign up.

The trade-off: Free options cover fewer games and carry station or market limits, while paid options cover more games at a monthly cost, so the choice turns on how many games you need.

The implication: A trial earns its cost only for a date the channel listing confirms, so check the schedule before you sign up.

Key dates on the 2026 schedule

• July 21, 2026: Dodgers at Phillies, 6:40 p.m. ET, aired on TBS nationally and on NBC Sports Philadelphia (Syracuse.com (Advance Local news))
• Sept. 2, 2026: Phillies at Arizona, 3:40 p.m. ET (Yahoo Sports (game-day guide))
• Sept. 7, 2026: Phillies vs. Braves at Citizens Bank Park, 1:05 p.m. ET, on NBC 10 (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))
• Sept. 13, 2026: Phillies at Braves at Truist Park, 1:35 p.m. ET, on NBC Sports Philadelphia (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))
• Sept. 18, 2026: Phillies at the Mets on Apple TV, 6:30 p.m., according to Yahoo Sports (game-day guide) (lower confidence)

Several pages conflict on game times and channels, and this guide did not reconcile them. The listing you rely on should match the date you plan to watch.

What this means: A single season moves between TBS, NBC Sports Philadelphia, NBC 10, and Apple TV, so the channel depends on the date, not the team.

Confirmed facts and open questions

Confirmed facts

• The Phillies play a 162-game regular season (PhillySportsWire (sports media publication))
• The Phillies play home games at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))
• The Phillies play in the National League East
• WIP 94.1 FM carries Phillies radio coverage in the Philadelphia market (Delaware Online (USA Today Network))

What’s unclear

• Today’s game and start time, because the cached MLB.com schedule had no game entries
• TV channel and streaming availability for a given market, where sources disagree
• Free trial terms for Fubo, YouTube TV, and Apple TV, which primary sources did not confirm
• Local blackout status for a specific game and address
• Canadian, UK, or other non-US access, which the sources reviewed do not cover

The pattern: The open list runs longer than the confirmed list, and that is the honest shape of this topic. The season is firm, while the day-level details are not.

What the sources say

Two named sources state the rules directly, and a third streaming guide adds a warning on free video.

MLB.tv carries every regular-season game live or on-demand, subject to local blackout rules.

PhillySportsWire (sports media publication)

According to Hotdog.com (streaming guide), a lower-confidence source, the situation on video is different.

It is generally not possible to stream Philadelphia games for free.

Hotdog.com (streaming guide)

The catch: Free radio is the lane most readers can count on, while free video is the rule the sources warn about. Plan the day’s listening before you plan the day’s streaming.

What this means for your next game

A Philadelphia fan without a live TV plan has three practical moves: confirm the day’s channel on the official schedule, use WIP 94.1 FM for a free listen, and buy a trial only for a game that the channel listing confirms. Out-of-market fans get the most complete season coverage through MLB.tv, but the blackout rule still decides which games open. For an out-of-market fan, the choice is clear: pay for MLB.tv and check the blackout status for each date, or accept radio as the free fallback for the games it covers.
