How to watch the Mariners on TV tonight: cable channels, streaming options, and radio information for those of you who like to kick it old school.

Ichiro, who received the most votes by MLB players in the balloting process to decide who's selected to start the game, got a hit in his first at bat against Arizona pitcher Randy Johnson.

Frustratingly, despite the early announcement of a new streaming option, details about the cable situation for non cord-cutters have been thin on the ground. Finally, we have some clarification on the eve of Opening Day. Mariners games will indeed be available on both Comcast/Xfinity and Charter/Spectrum cable in the Seattle/Tacoma area, but now we have an exact channel listing.

Xfinity: channel 1261 Spectrum: channel 414 While there was no announcement about DirecTV, this post indicates it will remain on channel 687. If you had the ability to get Mariners games in the past, the games should still be part of your cable package. If you tune into these channels as a test and don’t get anything today, don’t fret; they’ll only be live during game time.

RIP to Root Sports and the pre-game Mariners content where we learned about players’ first baseball gloves and the like, I guess. You can also of course follow the team in-market with Mariners. TV as a streaming option .
