This coming weekend, the Tigers will head to Historic Bowman Field to take on the Yankees in the seventh annual Little League Classic in Williamsport, PA, the home of the Little League World Series. 2024 marks the seventh consecutive year MLB has put on this contest, which allows players on Little League teams from across the country and around the world to get front row seats to a major league game.

The game will come right on the heels of the start to the Little League World Series, which begins on Wednesday, Aug. 14 and concludes on Aug. 25. This is the Tigers' and Yankees' first time competing in the event.

Knowing where to look for baseball when you're watching on TV is becoming a much more complicated endeavor than it needs to be, so here's your guide on how to watch the Little League Classic from home.

How to watch Tigers-Yankees in the Little League classic with cable and streaming

  • Location: Historic Bowman Field in Williamsport, PA
  • Time: Sunday, Aug. 18 at 7 PM EST

The game will broadcast exclusively on ESPN, which should be included in most of your standard cable packages, depending on your provider. However, if you're looking for streaming options, ESPN can be found on DirecTV Stream, FuboTV, Youtube TV, Sling TV, and Hulu + Live TV.

FuboTV's Pro base plan will run you $79.99 a month for 193 channels. It not only includes ESPN but ESPN2, FS1, the Big Ten Network, and so on, to keep getting your ESPN Sunday Night Baseball fix through the rest of the season and stream whatever other sports keep you occupied during the baseball offseason.

The Tigers have faced off against the Yankees once already this season and suffered a sweep (despite a characteristically excellent start for Tarik Skubal) so hopefully they'll do better during this second meeting. However, the Little League Classic is, first and foremost, a good show for all of the kids in attendance, so we can expect the Tigers and Yankees to be having a lot of fun this weekend.
