If you’re a Braves fan, you’ll want to pay attention to this one because things are about to get a lot better when it comes to catching your favorite team on TV.
The Atlanta Braves have struck up a brand-new, multi-year partnership with Gray Media starting in 2025, and this deal is a home run for accessibility. What does that mean for you? Well, get ready to see more Braves action on more screens than ever before.
More Braves Action for More Fans
Here’s the scoop: 15 regular season games will be simulcast over-the-air on Gray Media’s networks alongside the Braves’ current rightsholder partner, FanDuel Sports Network. That means these games won’t just be limited to cable or streaming—they’ll also be free to watch for millions of fans through Gray’s broadcast channels.
The games will be spaced out throughout the season, so you’ll get a healthy dose of Braves baseball without worrying about where to find it. And if you’re the kind of fan who lives for the pre-season hype, there’s even more good news. Gray will exclusively produce and air ten spring training games. So, you can get a glimpse of the team getting into shape before the first pitch of the regular season.
This deal is huge, we’re talking about more than 15 million households gaining access to these games. Gray is spreading Braves coverage across 24 markets in six states within Atlanta’s home territory—a region that’s already one of the biggest in pro sports.
That means more people from Atlanta to the Gulf Coast and everywhere in between will be able to tune in. It doesn’t matter if you’re streaming, watching on cable, or picking up the broadcast on local TV; Braves baseball is coming to you.
Where and How to Tune In
If you’re wondering where to find these broadcasts, they’ll air on Peachtree TV Atlanta’s CW (WPCH 17.1) and Peachtree Sports Network (PSN). But Gray’s coverage doesn’t stop there.
They’re rolling out these games through a whole network of broadcast stations like the Palmetto Sports & Entertainment Network, the Tennessee Valley Sports & Entertainment Network, and the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network. Some of Gray’s ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and CW affiliates will also be joining the party, so you’ll have plenty of options for tuning in.
Derek Schiller, the Braves President & CEO, summed it up perfectly when he said the partnership is about giving fans more ways to watch their team.
Whether you prefer local TV, cable, or streaming, this deal covers all the bases. And Hilton Howell, the big boss over at Gray Media, is equally excited, saying they’re proud to bring Braves baseball back to local broadcast TV.
Beyond the Game: Extra Content for Braves Fans
This partnership isn’t just about the games themselves. The Braves and Gray Media plan to develop all sorts of extra programming to give fans even more ways to connect with their favorite team.
We’re talking behind-the-scenes content, player features, coach interviews, and maybe even a few alumni stories. It’s like getting a backstage pass to Braves Country, and who wouldn’t love that?
So mark your calendars! Starting in 2025, more games, more access, and more ways to follow your team are on the horizon.
