Despite a lackluster showing last year, the St. Louis Cardinals are in better shape for an improved 2024 season. The team has enhanced its bullpen, star second baseman Nolan Gorman appears to be healthy, and there are plenty of other returning faces ready to redeem the 2023 season. But if you don't know how to watch St. Louis Cardinals games, you'll be missing out on the action.
Cardinals games air on a variety of networks (including Bally Sports Midwest, ESPN, FOX, FS1, and TBS), so dedicated fans will need to keep a close eye on where the action is airing if they're hoping to catch every matchup this year. That's especially true if you want to know how to watch Cardinals baseball without cable, as some platforms don't get your regional channels or even networks like TBS.
Things begin on Bally Sports Midwest on March 28 when the Cardinals go up against the Dodgers, but that station isn't where you'll be able to watch St. Louis Cardinals games all year long. Here's where to stream St. Louis Cardinals games, including services with the most St. Louis Cardinals live streams, those that include local channels and regional matchups, and services that are more geared toward national baseball audiences.
