About this app
MLB is Major League Baseball's official app for scores, news, highlights and live game video and audio. Free features include in-game highlights for every game, alerts for players you follow, a Gameday view with real-time player positions and batted balls, MLB Film Room video search, Picture-in-Picture and Live Activities on the Lock Screen. Subscribers can watch out-of-market games, stream MLB Network, listen to home, away and Spanish-language radio broadcasts, and watch Minor League Baseball games. It is aimed at fans who follow games closely and want video and data in one place. MLB is one of the apps Apple featured in its October 22, 2026 iPhone Duo announcement, which includes a quote from MLB executive Kenny Gersh. According to that announcement, MLB built a tabletop layout for the half-open phone: the broadcast plays on the upright half while live stats fill the half resting on the table. The App Store release notes for version 26.18.3 say the app was optimized for iPhone Duo. They mention a redesigned tab bar, plus Live Activities and scoreboard layouts adapted for every orientation.
