If you don't want an antenna, these free streaming apps carry FAST sports channels + replays + highlights. All work on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Google TV, and most smart TVs.
Reality check: Free apps DON'T have live Boston Red Sox games — those still need broadcast networks (antenna) or a paid subscription. They fill the gaps with highlights, replays, and FAST sports channels.
