With just three days left until the start of the 2026 MLB playoffs, the postseason picture is as murky as ever, with zero playoff matchups yet finalized.
Luckily for baseball fans, there has never been a clearer picture of how to watch every postseason game during the opening round of the playoffs.
All wild card games will be streaming simulcast on NBC/Peacock, which means you can watch every second of all four wild card series with Peacock
