World Series Game 7 on FOX, only the second Game 7 in the Fall Classic since 2002, posted a Series-high 13.7/23 with 23.5 million viewers, +69% in rating and +76% in audience compared to Game 6 (8.1, 13.4 million), and +88% in rating and +91% in audience compared to the average of Games 1-6 (7.3, 12.3 million). Additional Game 7 highlights follow:


quote:

• In terms of total audience, Game 7 attracted 52 million viewers who watched all or part of the game, making it the second most-watched baseball game since Game 4 of the 2004 World Series. It is the most-watched sports event since the Sochi Olympics (58.6 million) and most-watched program since the Academy Awards in March (68.5 million).


quote:

• From 8:06-11:00 PM ET, FOX averaged a 13.3/22 in prime time which projects to be the network’s best performance on a Wednesday night since May 2011.


quote:




• Kansas City turned out in force to watch the finale of their Royals’ thrilling postseason run, posting its highest metered market rating for any MLB game on record - 58.3/77. (Note: Kansas City was not a metered market during the Royals’ last World Series appearance in 1985). San Francisco’s 38.8/64 was the best MLB rating for the Bay Area since Game 7 of the 2002 World Series.

• Combined with FOX Deportes, the 2014 World Series averaged 14.1 million viewers per telecast, +10% better than 2012 (12.8 million).




Great series to watch and a nice finish for baseball.

*in before people bitch about the length of the season*
*in before people bitch about how there are no stars left*
*in before people bitch about how baseball is a regonalized sport*


Really wish the Royals had won though - they'll be back.

It only took them the 257th game of the season to finally get good numbers. Imagine if they play 258 games next year

I watched the last inning of Game 7. Honestly, I didn't know the series was even going on until game 4 or so.

If Madison Bumgarner was not a star before, he is now.

Every left handed country boy in Dixie(+ some) is an admirer today.

Someone saying this EVERY time is becoming more cliche than actually bitching about each thing.
