Per FOX: The World Series averaged 9.785 million viewers over six games on FOX. That is the least-watched World Series on record.
Previous lows:
12.7 million viewers (Giants-Tigers, 2012)
13.6M (Phillies-Rays, 2008)
13.8M Giants-Royals, 2014)

Weird considering the LA television market and not winning a World Series in 32 years. I know TB isn’t the most exciting brand and television market, but those ratings are awfully low considering how weird and bad of a year 2020 is.

NB4 someone blames Lebron

I think those ratings are mostly all L.A. - so it's not bad.
I'd like to see how much the Tampa Bay market contributed to the ratings.

Since when did MLB draw more viewers than the NBA finals? Perhaps it's common but I never would've thought that.

The finals were averaging 6.71 million viewers after three games and attracted an audience of 7.54 million for game four and 5.7 million for game five. Based on the reported figures, the average viewership across the entire series was just over 6.4 million.

Tampa really helped kill the ratings. Not their fault but nobody cares about them.

How pissed are the NBA and MLB that they couldn't capitalize on their marquee LA team winning the championship?

Living in the Tampa Bay Area, it really seemed like more people were excited about the Lightning winning the Stanley Cup than the Rays being in the World Series. Weirdly enough, this is a southern hockey town.

This is the first year that I didn’t at least follow the World Series in highlights. Also the first time I never tuned in for at least a few innings. I can’t be bothered to care about baseball even just a little bit anymore. SAD.

Because people in Tampa don’t even want to watch the Rays.
And Tropicana Field is the worst stadium in sports, worst than the Oakland Coliseum.

It’s all the SJW stuff the MLB was doing during the World Series
Posted on 10/28/20 at 11:17 pm to RedRifle

So MLB is still the second most watched professional sport in America by far. Not bad for a sport that some say is dying.

40 million people watched the Cubs win the game 7 a few years ago. 30 + million less people just 4 years later.
The Cavs Warriors game 7 in 2016 drew 31 million.
Its been a rough 4 years for sports.
The 2019 superbowl was also the least watched in 11 years. 4 consecutive years of declining ratings for the superbowl.
Sports seem to have peaked from a TV spectating standpoint.
