Depending on how you watch, setup vpn or fake gps location to get around blackout.
I do this for the At Bat app on my phone.
I planned on using this and then just mirroring it to my tv. But, for some reason, my new Samsung uhd tv has an MLB app / channel, and it doesn't have a blackout restriction when I selected the Royals broadcast ?
It's a really rudimentary At Bat channel built into their smart tv service offerings, but it's letting me select any game and which team's broadcast I want and coming in in full HD, so I'm not sure why it doesn't blackout the game, but I'll happily take it. Hopefully, they don't update and fix this anytime soon.
If you have android and At Bat get Globus VPN and Fake GPS through Google Play - they are both free, and you can get around blackout restrictions.
I also got rid of cable now that I can access pretty much everything via XBox, Roku, etc.
