The 2026 Subway Series is here—How to watch Yankees vs. Mets Game 1 for free

Hop on the 7 Train to Flushing — the first 2026 Subway Series is here.

The New York Yankees will head to Queens to face their crosstown rivals, the New York Mets, in a three-game weekend series, which also marks the 30th season of the Subway Series.

Last year, the teams split the Subway Series by winning three games each. This year, the Mets are entering the weekend on a hot streak winning seven of their last 10 including a three-game sweep of the Detroit Tigers. The Yankees have only won four of their last 10, with just one win in their last six games.

After this weekend’s series, the Subway Series will move to the Bronx in September for three more games.

Tonight’s Subway Series game is exclusive to Apple TV, but fear not: It’s easy to subscribe and tune in — and completely free, if you’re a new user.

The first game of the 2026 Subway Series is scheduled to begin at 7:15 p.m. ET tonight, May 15.

Tonight’s Yankees vs. Mets game is airing on Apple TV, so you’ll need a subscription to watch the game. Apple TV offers a seven-day free trial for users, so you’ll be able to watch two weeks of Friday night doubleheaders before $12.99/month payments kick in.

Amazon Prime members can also subscribe to Apple TV directly through Prime Video. It costs the same monthly price and also includes a seven-day free trial, but allows you to stream Apple’s content inside the Prime Video app.

Cam Schlittler (5-1, 1.35 ERA) will start for the Yankees tonight, while former Yankee Clay Holmes (4-3, 1.86 ERA) will be on the mound for the Mets.

Friday Night Baseball, Apple TV’s weekly doubleheaders, are returning for a fifth season. The schedule through the end of June has been released. All times below are in ET:
