Anyone know the cheapest way to get access to ACCNX? Seems like that is the only way to watch most of the baseball games
Accnx for baseball

It should be free if you have ACCN as part of your cable, satellite or streaming package.
I have it as it's how I watch the heels on weekends. I am currently watching the pie rats on demand and is the second game of a double header and the place is empty.
Download the ESPN app and log in with your YouTubeTV credentials.
If you have YouTube TV, you should be able to login to your YouTube TV account from within the espn app and that’ll give you all the access you need.
In fairness, I signed in for the first time in a long time this weekend and I did think it was more confusing than years past. It seems like the ESPN app wants to make you think you need to buy a separate ESPN subscription to watch. But that’s not true if you have YouTube TV
Yea I had to delete the app and reinstall. Kept asking me to sign in w Direct tv which haven’t had in years
I have YTTV and ESPN app kept giving message all weekend that it was not available … SMH! Maybe I’ll delete app and try again.
One I deleted it I was able to sign in w YouTube log in so we will see how that works out
You can test it in the mean time. Go to ESPN app and try and watch something this afternoon/evening that has ACCNX or SECN+ next to it.
I use a VPN occasionally. I kept getting a blackout message and realized I needed to switch back to NC and that fixed it. If that’s the same message you were getting, maybe try a VPN and set your location to NC if not living here.
If you like the other channels and maybe some pro sports, keep YTTV.
If you’re like me and only care about the Heels and what is occasionally available on antenna TV (Panthers), then cancel YTTV and subscribe to ESPN Unlimited through Disney+ to save $50+ every month.
It is the same login process if not easier.
Get the ESPN app - go to watch at the bottom then find the baseball game - you will then simply log in with your YouTube TV credentials
This is probably a good place to point out how bad the ESPN app is. The amount of technical glitches that still exist after 20 years makes EA Sports look like a competent programmer.
last weekend, every time I tried to connect, either through Tommy’s link, or directly from the app, I would get a message that I had to re-authenticate.
so, I asked the app how to do that, and the bot immediately came on, and told me to delete the app, and start over.
which I did for all three games.
not long afterwards, the bot wanted me to send in a review of my experience with the bot…

I had to reauthenticate my credentials for every game this weekend on the same device. And yes, even for game 2 after watching game 1 an hour earlier. It's so bad.
I used some combination of living room tv, bedroom TV, computer and phone for the 3 games over ~27 hours and probably had to sign out and back in like 10 times.
I used the dSPN app at some point during all 3 games, watching replays during the game on Friday, watching the rest of game 2 on Saturday after leaving at the end of the 5th inning to walk over to the Smith Center for basketball. and then watching the start of game 3 heading back to Boshamer after hoops ended. I never had to log off and back on. and that is my usual experience with the app. The only problem I had over the weekend was the video occasionally clocking.
