On Tuesday evening, YouTube TV sent an email to its customers informing them that the company and Major League Baseball had not been able to renew their contract with each other. The MLB Network will cease to be on the streaming service starting January 31st, 2023.

Below is the e-mail:

Hi.

We have been working hard to renew our deal with the MLB Network to continue carrying their content on YouTube TV. However, we have been unable to reach an agreement, and starting today, January 31, 2023, MLB Network content will no longer be available on YouTube TV. You will also lose access to any previous Library recordings from this channel. Members will be able to continue watching select national MLB games via coverage on FOX, ESPN, and TBS through our Base Plan. We also provide the flexibility to pause or cancel your membership anytime.

‌We apologize for the news and will continue conversations with the MLB to advocate on your behalf, in the hope of restoring their content on YouTube TV.

‌As always, thank you for being a YouTube TV member, and for your patience and understanding.

‌Sincerely,
The YouTube TV team
