What Fans Can Expect From Streaming Options

This hybrid approach works well for cord-cutters and still keeps things easy for cable subscribers. It’s a bit of the best of both worlds, honestly.

Free Local TV and National Broadcast Exposure

Nationally, 13 games are set for big network broadcasts:

Of course, national schedules can always shift, but the early lineup shows the league still wants Cleveland in the spotlight.

Radio Coverage Remains a Guardians Staple

Radio is still huge for Guardians baseball, especially for fans tuning in on the road or during summer nights. All 162 regular-season games will air on the Cleveland Clinic Guardians Radio Network, anchored by WTAM 1100.

Additionally, 133 games will simulcast on 100.7 WMMS, as long as there’s no conflict with Cavaliers games.

Spanish-Language Broadcasts Continue to Grow

Los Guardians Spanish Radio, presented by Sherwin-Williams, will air all 81 home games in Spanish again. The club’s pushing to reach more of Cleveland’s Latino community and make sure everyone feels included.

Familiar Voices Return to the Booth

Guardians broadcasts still lean on continuity. The main TV crew—Matt Underwood, Rick Manning, and Andre Knott—returns in 2026, with analysts and reporters like Chris Gimenez, Al Pawlowski, Cayleigh Griffin, Cody Allen, Austin Jackson, and Ben Broussard backing them up.

On radio, Tom Hamilton and Jim Rosenhaus are still holding it down. Hall of Famer Carlos Baerga joins Rafael Hernandez-Brito and Gustavo Luques for Spanish-language coverage.

It’s wild, but both Manning and Hamilton are heading into their 37th season as Guardians broadcasters. That’s rare, and it really says something about their bond with fans and their deep roots in the franchise.

A Consistent, Fan-First Broadcast Strategy

The Guardians are gearing up for 2026 with a broadcast plan that feels stable and familiar. They’ve kept tradition in mind while making sure fans have options.

Whether you’re into streaming, TV, or the old-school radio crackle, there’s a way to follow all 162 games. And honestly, there’s something comforting about hearing those same voices that have been with Cleveland baseball for decades.
