What channel number will Twins.TV be on for DIRECTV this season?
Is DIRECTV going to carry the Minnesota Twins games on Twins TV on a channel in 2025?

Most pro baseball games are on an RSN channel in the 600 range.

Professional sports (MLB, NBA, NHL) depends first on where you live.
If you are out-of-market, than in-season games are watched on the seasonal sports subscription MLB Extra Innings.
If you are in-market, you watch on your Regional Sports Network (RSN) in the 600s. However, if a specific local where you live gets the rights to a game than you may only watch it there (and that is regardless if DirecTV has permission to carry that local affiliate).
Must be in Choice or higher to have your in-market RSNs. Lower packages you can add on the Sports Pack which is cheaper than raising to Choice. (Sports Pack does not provide out-of-market games)
Weekend afternoon/evening games have special rights sold to ESPN and FOX.
This is how it has worked for years. The change is back in 2022 MLB sold rights to Apple for some games in a 7 year deal.

After some research it appears that the Twins have reached a deal with I assume is the MLB to stream their games without blackout rules to subscribers with one exception nationally televised games will still be blacked out.
This is from the article I read:
This is in addition to TWINS.TV distribution via cable, satellite and other television providers, the details of which will be announced at a later date.
