This week’s two-game Phillies-Mets series will not be televised at all if you live in the Philadelphia market. Here is how you can still watch.

Don’t bother scrolling through your TV channels Tuesday or Wednesday to find the Phillies-Mets series; it won’t be there. You will only be able to watch both games via live stream.

Tuesday’s game won’t be televised because the Flyers and Sixers both also play at the same time. The Sixers will play the Brooklyn Nets on NBC Sports Philadelphia, while the Flyers will face the Islanders on NBC Sports Philadelphia+ (formerly TCN).

Meanwhile, Wednesday’s game will only be streamed via Facebook Watch. Facebook is streaming one MLB game exclusively per week – 25 in total – throughout the season. All of them are afternoon games.

Here is all the information you need for this series:

If you are having issues streaming the game on the website Tuesday night, the Morning Call posted a step-by-step tutorial on how to log in properly using your television provider account.

If the link above for Facebook Watch doesn’t work, just look on the left side of your Facebook feed, likely just under the icons for your news feed and messenger.

Besides Facebook, there is no other “official” way to watch the game Wednesday afternoon. However, if you are a savvy internet user, you may be able to find another way to watch if you don’t have a Facebook account.
