Apple is making users pay to watch Friday Night Baseball this year. The company announced on Wednesday that only those who subscribe to its $6.99 per month Apple TV Plus subscription can watch the Major League Baseball games, which kick off on April 7th.
When Apple first announced Friday Night Baseball last year, the company let everyone watch the games for free on Apple TV Plus and only required that they sign up for an account. However, Apple did hint that it wouldn't stream the games for free forever, as an archived version of Apple's Friday Night Baseball support page notes that for a limited time, you can watch without a subscription." This line is now absent from the support page that's currently live on Apple's website.
