Watch Game 5 on DIRECTV

Find your local FOX affiliate in the DIRECTV guide for your service address. FOX is a local station, so its number and carriage can vary. Confirm that your current package includes that affiliate before the 8 p.m. ET broadcast. Spanish-language coverage is on FOX Deportes where included.

FOX One is a separate streaming option for the series. FOX Sports app and website access can require an eligible participating TV-provider login. Test the account and device you plan to use before the game; a channel listing alone does not establish that a subscription authorizes it.
