Bay Area cord-cutters have a new option to watch their teams’ games beginning Tuesday.

NBC Universal is adding its regional sports networks to Peacock for an add-on fee, meaning Bay Area subscribers will be able to watch Warriors, Giants and Sharks games on the streaming platform.

NBC Sports Bay Area and NBC Sports California will both be available, each at a $17.95 monthly price point. That cost is added on top of a Peacock Premium ($7.99/month) or Peacock Premium Plus ($13.99, no ads) subscription.

A spokesperson for NBC Universal confirmed that access to games will be the same as the company’s TV offerings, meaning that Sacramento Kings games will not be available to NBC Sports California subscribers in the Bay Area, though A’s and Sharks games will be.

The add-on will be a 24/7 channel within the Peacock platform, so the Bay FC, San Jose State and Santa Cruz Warriors games aired on NBC Sports Bay Area’s TV channel will be available on the stream, as will 49ers-related shows. Games aired on “plus” channels -- like when the Warriors and Giants play at the same time -- will be available on the service.

The price for a single channel -- or both NBC Sports Bay Area and NBC Sports California -- is significantly less than YouTube TV, Fubo or Hulu + Live TV, though those services offer many more channels. The NBC regional sports networks are still not on Sling, which dropped them in 2021.

Blackout dates for nationally televised games will still apply, just like they do for NBC Sports cable offerings.

The rollout includes all four of NBC Universal’s regional sports networks -- Bay Area, California, Philadelphia and Boston -- and comes two months after the company moved its Northern California offerings to a higher tier for TV subscribers.

Denver expansion team unveils stadium plan >> The expansion National Women’s Soccer League team that will kick off next year in Denver has unveiled plans for a new downtown soccer stadium.

The facility will be only the second purpose-built women’s soccer stadium in the league after the Kansas City Current opened CPKC Stadium last year.

Denver was awarded the NWSL’s 16th team earlier this year. The club has not announced where it will play while the new stadium is being built.

The NWSL currently has 14 teams. A club in Boston will join Denver in kicking off next year. Groups in Cleveland and Cincinnati were also vying for a team during the latest round of expansion.

Suspended Sinner plans to play at Hamburg in May >> Top-ranked Jannik Sinner added a tournament in Hamburg, Germany, to his French Open prep for when he returns from a 3-month doping ban in May.

Organizers of the May 17-24 Hamburg Open announced Sinner’s entry. Sinner will return at the Italian Open before his home fans earlier in May. Sinner comes from the German-speaking Alto Adige region of Italy.

A spokeswoman confirmed Sinner will play in Hamburg and said the only Wimbledon warmup that the three-time Grand Slam champion plans to enter is also in Germany, in Halle.

Sinner accepted his ban last month in a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency. WADA appealed a decision last year by the International Tennis Integrity Agency to fully exonerate Sinner for what it deemed to be an accidental contamination.

Sinner’s ban expires on May 4. He then plans to play the Italian Open (May 7-18), Hamburg (May 17-24), the French Open (May 25-June 8), Halle (June 16-22) and Wimbledon (June 30-July 13).
