Towering home runs that clear Fenway Park’s Green Monster. Spectacular lamp-lighting goals at TD Garden. Don’t miss a second of the Boston Red Sox or Boston Bruins in action with New England Sports Network (NESN) on DIRECTV.
NESN is a regional sports cable and satellite television network based in Watertown, Massachusetts. NESN’s biggest draw is its live game coverage of the Red Sox and Bruins, both of whom hold ownership stakes in the regional sports network (RSN).
But NESN is more than just the Sox and Bruins. It’s also home to in-depth news coverage and analysis of the six-state New England region’s sports teams, including the New England Patriots and Boston Celtics.
What Teams Are on NESN Sports?
Live game broadcasts and pre- and post-game of the MLB’s Boston Red Sox and NHL’s Boston Bruins are NESN’s bread and butter, but you’ll find all sorts of New England sports content on what is one of the country’s oldest regional sports networks. Founded in 1984, NESN is also a go-to source for news and analysis of the MLB’s Boston Red Sox and NFL’s New England Patriots.
