An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this MLB.com phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like MLB.com staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

More MLB.com Customer Service Contacts

There are of course other ways to contact MLB.com customer service besides the phone. Below we list the best ones, by medium.

MLB.com Customer Email Addresses

customerservice.@website.mlb.com - Customer Service
Use this link or copy and paste it to send customer service an email
Corresponding with a customer service department by email may not be your first choice, especially if your issue is urgent or time-sensitive. But email is a nearly ubiquitous form of communication, and MLB.com will reply our your email.

MLB.com Customer Service on X (formerly Twitter)

@MLBFanSupport - Customer Service
Company dedicated Twitter handle
MLB.com, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.

MLB.com Customer Help Desk / Web Support

mlb.com - Customer Service
Use this link to find customer service help through their website
As a last, sometimes only, resort- MLB.com customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
