Amazon Prime Video will begin exclusively streaming New York Yankees games later this month, with 19 of the 21 games in the package airing on Friday nights. 

Amazon Prime Video began streaming simulcast Yankees games with broadcasters and the YES Network in 2020,  but this is the first time it has exclusive rights for the games. The games will be available at no additional cost to Prime members in the Yankees’ home-team footprint of New York state, Connecticut, north and central New Jersey, and northeast Pennsylvania, with the first contest scheduled for Friday, April 22, as the Yankees host the Cleveland Guardians.

News of the exclusivity of the deal was first reported by The New York Post. 

Amazon’s X-Ray technology, which allows viewers to access live in-game stats, team and player details, and real-time play-by-play information for fans streaming on Android, iOS mobile, and Fire TV, will again be available to Amazon Prime subscribers. Games will be available for replay on Prime Video for 48 hours following their conclusion. Prime Video’s live Yankees games will be available to MLB.TV subscribers outside the Yankees’ home team footprint. 

The games and accompanying Prime Video studio shows will be produced by YES’ Emmy-winning broadcast team, in collaboration with Prime Video. Prime Video’s popular pregame show will return as an extended 30-minute segment hosted by YES’ Meredith Marakovits to preview the evening’s game, highlight marquee matchups and top players, and provide key insights and stats.

YES’ play-by-play announcer Michael Kay will be behind the mic for Prime Video’s Yankees in-game coverage, joined by YES analysts David Cone, Paul O’Neill, Carlos Beltran, John Flaherty, and Cameron Maybin, while Marakovits will be the clubhouse reporter. Prime Video’s coverage will also include a postgame wrap hosted by YES talent, featuring in-game highlights and live press conferences with Yankees manager Aaron Boone. ■

Can we interest anyone in some Tuesday night baseball? If so, the Los Angeles Angels host the New York Yankees on Prime Video! If not… um… maybe stream some classic It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia episodes on Hulu?

Jameson Taillon gets the start for the Yanks tonight. Entering the game with a 12-4 record on the season, his last outing (6.0 innings, six hits, one earned run) resulted in a New York victory, with the Bronx Bombers defeating the A’s 13-4. The Angels will counter with Mike Mayers (4.46 ERA), who’s making his second start of the season.
