Vermont Lake Monsters Set for Record Television Season in 2026

A majority of home games will be broadcast free on WYCI, expanding fan access across the region

The Vermont Lake Monsters, the minor‑league baseball franchise that calls Burlington home, revealed that the 2026 season will feature a record‑breaking television schedule.

A historic broadcast agreement

In total, 26 of the team’s home games will be shown on television, a number that represents more than three‑quarters of all home contests.

The broadcasts will air on WYCI, the regional cable and satellite channel that has partnered with the team to bring live baseball to a wider audience.

Fans who do not have a pay‑TV subscription can still catch the games over the air on WCAX’s “3 News Now” channel 3.6, ensuring that the majority of the schedule remains free to view.

The move is being hailed as a win for community engagement, as local viewers — especially families and younger fans — will have easier access to the sport without the barrier of a monthly fee.

Team officials say the expanded coverage reflects a growing appetite for minor‑league baseball in New England and underscores the franchise’s commitment to making the game accessible.
