Who’s winning the World Series?
Red Sox manager Alex Cora has rejuvenated Boston, delivering the World Series title in his first year.
Is this the start of a new Sox dynasty? Boston will likely add a fourth straight American League East division title come 2019, but Cora’s club will be aiming at nothing less than a successful title defense.

I have the ExpressVPN service. Can I use ExpressVPN to sign into MLB.TV to stream blackout games and then cast to a chromecast, or will it note that my Chromecast is on a router located in a blackout area?
Hi Lee,
For the smoothest streaming experience, we do not recommend casting to a Chromecast.
tried to stream Baltimore Orioles games on IPVANISH vpn using amazon firetv. miserable failure. why would YOUR vpn be better ? and i’ve heard VPN’s have some sort of trouble with Amazon fire products (by FAR the best and most commonly used streaming devices. Obviously your vpn is not helpful to us if it doesnt work with FireTv/stick products ) what’s a roku/ an australian animal ?) thanx
Hi Gregory,
ExpressVPN is fully supported on Amazon Fire products. You can follow this guide: https://www.expressvpn.com/support/vpn-setup/setup-amazon-fire-stick-fire-tv/ and enjoy ExpressVPN’s 30-day money-back guarantee.
Roku is a popular smart TV and streaming player company. I’m not sure if it’s also the name of a species of animal found in Australia, but I’ll keep an eye out next time I visit 🙂
I am having the same issue with my appletv too (4th gen) i have my router (netscape) with expressvpn on it. MLB is still blackout through both systems.
I got this specifically for watching baseball.
Hi Jennifer,
Please get in touch with Support here: https://www.expressvpn.com/support/#open-chat
I am going through all your youtube videos, and redoing everything step by step hopefully this will work.
This didn’t help. I’ve tried attaching mediastreamer, but everything else is set up through router. I don’t know how to attach this through expressvpnrouter. Any suggestions?
I got it up and working now. I had to add Media streamer to my expressvpn router. Thankyou for all the youtube videos that walked me through this.
I have my AppleTV set up with Mediastreamer and MLB does not work. I then changed my router’s L2PT settings to be out of the blackout zones, and now every game is blacked out. I’ll be honest, this was one of the big reasons for me to subscribe in the first place.
I should add that it also doesn’t work in browser, either. MLB.tv knows where I am…
Hi Timothy,
You may need to spoof your location as well. Some possible steps are here: https://www.quora.com/Can-you-fake-a-location-on-an-Apple-TV

Just got signed up today and used the step by step guide for setting up with a 4th gen Apple TV by first creating a ddns account, then doing the Dynamic DNS Registration, then manually
configuring the DNS server IP on the Apple TV’s settings. After restarting via settings (per instructions) I still get blacked out of local games. Any suggestions?

MLB at bat is not working for me. I tried a GPS location spoofer in conjunction with VPNexpress and it still doesnt work. I am using device gps only, not advanced tracking.
Hi Vic,
Try not to use a GPS location spoofer with ExpressVPN. With a VPN, your IP address is already hidden and replaced by the server address you connect to. If you have further problems, please contact the Support team at http://www.expressvpn.com/support/ for further assistance.
Hi Vic, did you ever get this to work? Im having the same problem.
will this work for watching Bruins Hockey (NHL) on NESN.
Hi Bill,
ExpressVPN does not interfere with any streamimg service you choose to use. In fact, it helps you access your favorite sport streams no matter where you are.
If you have problems using ExpressVPN to watch NESN, please contact the Support team at http://www.expressvpn.com/support 🙂

Hi there,

It’s not working for the World Baseball Classic on mlb.tv only watchable in the US. I need help or a refund on my money.
Hey B,
Have you tried connecting to a server location in the U.S. before watching? Try to run your VPN first and then visit the site you’re trying to watch from. You can also contact the Support team at http://www.expressvpn.com/support if you need help 🙂
I think MLB has gotten wise to the VPN trick. I’m trying to stream the World Baseball Classic in the UK (where it’s blacklisted). Have used Express VPN to both DC and NY and MLB TV says,
“We’re sorry. We have determined that you are blacked out of watching the game you selected, due to television broadcaster restrictions. An archive copy of the game will be available 90 minutes after the game ends.”
Is there a solution to this, or are we stuck?
🙁
Hi Nick, try connecting to another location in the U.S. Or contact the Support Team, who might be able to help you.
Can I stream the South African cricket tour to New Zealand?
Hi Christian,
A VPN can help you stream sports no matter where you are. Simply pick a broadcaster that is showing the South African cricket tour, connect to a VPN server in that location, then you’ll be able to watch the games in New Zealand or anywhere else!
Is there any chance that I can get VPN Express to use in Spain and UK while I am away in Europe this month. We are huge baseball fans and don’t want to miss a minute. If it’s possible, can I use wifi to connect in our hotel room? Thanks for your help.
I downloaded expresa vpn changed my location and it will not let me watch it any help?
