T-Mobile's new agreement with Major League Baseball could save customers and fans $150 a year.
T-Mobile said Thursday that it'll continue to offer its customers free MLB.TV subscriptions through 2028 as part of the company's latest deal with Major League Baseball. T-Mobile wrote that this deal has been its most popular offer for the past eight years.
Plans for MLB.TV start at around $150 a year. The service gives customers access to livestreams for out-of-market home games and away games. Customers get access to pre- and postgame shows, and they can pause and rewind games.
CNET's Matt Elliott found MLB.TV's blackout restrictions frustrating, but out-of-market baseball fans can still find plenty to enjoy about the streaming service.
Though MLB.TV is a nice perk for T-Mobile customers, the nation's second-largest wireless carrier disclosed earlier this year that data from 37 million of its customers was stolen in a breach. The hack was the fifth data breach in five years, raising concern over the carrier's security.
T-Mobile on Thursday also said that it'll test an automated ball system at some Minor League games using the carrier's 5G network. The carrier will continue its T-Mobile Little League Call Up Grant Program, too.
