However, for those who struggle to watch due to time differences and changing broadcast channels, we have compiled a complete guide to watching MLB.
1. Domestic MLB exclusive broadcasting rights and viewing platform

2. How to use 'MLB.TV' to experience the sense of being 100% real

3. Things to Note When Watching MLB Broadcasts: Time Difference and Schedule
The United States is a vast country, so there is a very large time difference between the East and West Coasts.
Western teams (LA Dodgers, San Francisco Giants, etc.): Games are usually held between 10 AM and 1 PM Korean time, making them good to watch around lunchtime.
Eastern teams (New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, etc.): Games start between 8 and 9 AM or in the early morning Korean time, so they are suitable for watching as you start your day early.
Daylight Saving Time Check: Checking the scheduler is essential, as the start time of the match is advanced or delayed by one hour depending on whether Daylight Saving Time is observed in the United States.
4. Utilize statistics sites to add depth to your broadcast.
Major League Baseball broadcasts are a feast of data. By referring to the following websites while watching the broadcast, you can watch the game at an expert level.
Baseball Savant: Displays real-time graphics of the spin rate and exit velocity of the ball thrown by the pitcher. It answers the question, "Why didn't that ball just hit become a home run?" with numerical data.
FanGraphs: You can analyze when the flow of the game changed through real-time win probability graphs.
5. Polite viewing of broadcasts and community activities
The joy of sports is doubled when enjoyed together. Try sharing your opinions through real-time chat on broadcasting platforms or the nation's largest baseball communities. However, a mature fan mindset that offers encouragement rather than criticism when a player makes a mistake creates a healthy viewing culture.
