So, I wanted to watch some baseball games online. My buddy told me about this site called “Buffstream MLB” where you can supposedly watch live sports for free. Free is always good, right? So I decided to give it a shot.
First, I searched for “Buffstream MLB” and found the site. It looked a little sketchy, to be honest, not like the official sports sites I’ve seen. But hey, it was free, so I held my nose and clicked around. The site had a bunch of different sports listed, like football, basketball, and boxing, but I was only interested in baseball.

I found a game that was playing live and clicked on it. The stream started up, and the quality was actually pretty decent. I was surprised. But then, a few minutes in, the stream froze. I refreshed the page, and it started working again, but it kept freezing every few minutes. It was super annoying. Then there were so many ads, like I’m trying to watch the game, but I’m getting bombarded with all these ads, you know?
While I was messing around with the site, I started thinking about whether this was even legal. I mean, it’s a free site streaming all these games, and it didn’t seem like they had the rights to do it. I started getting a little worried that I might get in trouble for watching, so I did some quick searching online.
It turns out that Buffstream is probably not a legit site. They’re likely streaming these games without permission, which is, you know, against the law. Some people online were saying that you could get in trouble for even watching these streams, but others said that the risk was pretty low unless you started downloading the games or showing them in public. To be honest, that is kind of grey area, and I’m not sure who to believe.
Besides the legal stuff, I also read that these kinds of sites can be risky for your computer. They might have viruses or malware or whatever, and I definitely didn’t want to deal with that. I mean, a virus is not worth it just to watch a baseball game, right?
Anyway, after reading all that, I decided to just close the site and forget about it. It wasn’t worth the risk, and the stream was so unreliable anyway. I ended up just checking the scores online instead.
My conclusion
- Free isn’t always better: Sure, Buffstream was free, but the quality was bad, and it might not even be legal.
- Sketchy sites are risky: I don’t want to mess up my computer just to watch a game.
- It’s probably not worth it: There are better ways to watch sports, even if you have to pay a little.
So yeah, that was my experience with Buffstream MLB. I wouldn’t recommend it. But you should make your decision, I’m just sharing what happened to me.
