25.9 million viewers for game 7 of the world series

Japan and Canada haven't released their numbers yet but would assume its over 20% of Japan was tuned into the game and the numbers for Canada will be very high as well

It was a helluva game to end a helluva series

It was a good World Series that lived up to the hype.

And those numbers came against a slate of college football fans who probably would have watched if not compelled to watch their favorite CFB team.

Great numbers! I feel bad for any sports fan that missed it. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Even for the casual fan you have to admit that was crazy to watch.

I'm a very casual baseball fan. I don't watch a single minute during the regular season. But that was absolutely must see tv.

No we were all tuned in to watch them lose!

The best part was the blue Jays fan who brought a Canadian flag and his glove with dreams of catching an historic home run of national significance.

His dream turned into a nightmare

Dodgers are gay, but as a neutral the entire postseason was competitive and compelling outside of the Dodgers-Reds and Dodgers-Brewers.

Incredible drama throughout, don’t like the team that won it but there is an awesome buzz about MLB right now which rules because it’s my favorite professional league.

Were people arguing ruining popularity or ruining competitive balance?

Good luck trying to have this conversation. This board can't separate the two.

YoutubeTV taking away college football was a blessing in disguise!

I would have flipped back and forth but baseball got my full attention and I'm glad it did!
