The MLB World Series is officially here. Following two incredibly intense Championship Series that both went seven games, the field is set. The upstart Arizona Diamondbacks will take on the new-look Texas Rangers for the ultimate title in 2023. Here's what you need to know about the games.

MLB World Series television channel
The entire World Series can exclusively be found on FOX. They are the home of the series, and that's not changing in 2023. This is only FOX, not FS1 or FS2. They have the exclusive broadcast.
MLB World Series live stream
Unfortunately, such a big event is not really available much for live streaming. The only option here is fubo.tv. This cable alternative is a streaming service that allows you to watch television channels, and FOX is on there.
Unfortunately, it is rather expensive. It costs $75 a month. There is a one-week free trial available for it, but it's a one-time use. If you've ever used the trial before, you can't get it now.
If you can do the trial, it's a great option. If you time it correctly and the series doesn't go to six games, there's a real chance you could watch all the games for free on it, but it's not very likely. That is where you can watch Texas vs. Arizona after they defeated the Houston Astros and Philadelphia Phillies, respectively.
