T-Mobile has teamed up with Major League Baseball to once again offer a free year of MLB.TV to eligible customers. The sign-up period began on March 26 and ends on April 1, so baseball fans will need to act fast to claim the offer.
This is the ninth consecutive year that the companies are offering the deal, which starts two days ahead of MLB's opening day.
As a standalone service, MLB.TV would run you $149.99 per year, or $29.99 per month.

More free streaming options
The deal follows T-Mobile's introduction in January of “Hulu on Us," which gives Go5G Next subscribers free access to Hulu’s ad-supported service. As a standalone service, Hulu's ad-supported plan costs $7.99 per month, or $79.99 per year. This is in addition to Go5G Next subscribers' free access to Netflix and Apple TV+.
Other streaming services offering deals recently include U.K.-based music video streaming app ROXi, which is planning to launch in the U.S. soon with both a free ad-supported service and a fee-based, ad-free premium version.
The app, which will offer voice-activated music videos, will be available on more than 90% of smart TVs including Samsung, LG, Vizio, Roku, Comcast, TCL, Amazon Fire TV, Google TV and Android TV.
In addition, Walmart is offering the Paramount Plus Essential Plan for free for its new or existing Walmart Plus members. As a standalone, the streaming plan costs $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year.
