Watch Major League Baseball Live On Facebook

Major League Baseball is tasting the waters of Facebook livestreaming: watch a few selected baseball games on the social network.

Ultimate Fighting Championship had already begun looking into the benefits of using Facebook to livestream matches and attract new fans, so it was a matter of time until some other sports association tried the marketing move themselves.

Enter Major League Baseball, which is letting fans watch a few selected baseball games live on a Facebook page until the end of the month (the end of the pre-season).

Unlike UFC, however, the stream is being fed right into MLB’s wall and doesn’t require installing an application to watch it.
