Wow! So this is it…Game 7 of the 2019 World Series. One of the Houston Astros or the Washington Nationals will take MLB baseball's biggest prize in this sudden-death winner-takes-all game in Texas tonight. And we’ll help you live stream every World Series minute, no matter where in the world you are.
The men from the capital took a fast two to zero series lead last week. But the Astros hit back, taking three back-to-back wins in Washington. Six games won on the road means that it now all boils down to the deciding Game 7.
The recent experience of the two teams on this stage could hardly be more different to one another. The Astros won the World Series just two years ago in 2017 by a margin of, you guessed it…4-3. While for the Nationals, this is the first time they've ever made the Fall Classic. And yet, we just have no idea how this final fixture will go.
The Washington Nationals made the World Series for the first time in franchise history after sweeping the Arizona Cardinals in the NLCS. The New York Yankees may have won their first game against the Houston Astros in the ALCS championship but Houston was able to turn things around and the team went on to win games 2, 3 and 4 and eventually a place in the 2019 World Series.
Whether you’re a Nationals fan in DC, an Astros fan in Houston or just a fan of the sport of baseball, we’ll show you how to live stream every game in the 2019 World Series online from anywhere in the world. Keep reading and we’ll guide you through all of the options to watch this year’s World Series on your TV, computer and even on mobile.

How to watch a World Series live stream from outside your country
We have your viewing options below if you want to watch the baseball from the US, UK or Canada, including the routes you need if you don't have cable access.
However, try watching your usual online coverage when you're abroad and you'll soon discover that you can due to broadcasters' geo-blocking. No, we don't suggest you go running to Reddit to see where you can stream a dodgy, illegal feed. It's by utilising a VPN – or Virtual Private Network – that allows you to change the IP address of your laptop or mobile to one in a different state or country which does have the stream so that you can watch the series from anywhere in the world.
How to watch the Washington Nationals vs Houston Astros in the US
