Scoring a 10.6/20 in metered market results, Game 4 of the 2017 World Series was a home run for the broadcaster.
First of all, after lagging behind the historic 2016 World Series so far, last night’s Dodgers vs, Astros match-up topped last year’s Game 4 between the Chicago Cubs and the Cleveland Indians on October 29, 2016 by a tenth in the early ratings. In fact, last night’s Game 4 was the second best MM result the 2017 World Series has had so far, behind Game 2 on October 25 in L.A. It was also tied for the best Game 4 MM result since 2009.
Looking back past last year’s World Series, which saw the first Cubs victory in over 100 years, last night’s Game 4 beat Game 4 of the 2015 World Series by 14% in metered market ratings. Topping Game 4 of the 2012 and 2013 World Series, the Dodgers big win in Texas last night was also up 49% over Game 4 of the 2014 World Series when the Kansas City Royals played the San Francisco Giants.
Game to game, last night’s comeback for L.A. rose 2% over Friday’s Astros winning Game 3 in MM ratings.
Game 4 of the 2016 World Series went on to snare a 3.1/11 rating among adults 18-49 and 12.17 million viewers. The 2016 Game 4 was the most watched Saturday World Series game in over a decade

You have 2 of the 3 biggest markets in the country and some compelling baseball. I'm glad to see it. I hope baseball can fill that void football is leaving, as IMHO it is offering the better product right now.

Tonight will be interesting since they will be competing against Sunday night football

Actually, for whatever reason, Houston is considered a small market team.

And an attractive matchup (Steelers vs Lions).

I'm wondering how much the Ohio State-Penn State lead-in helped the ratings. The World Series couldn't have had a better lead-in to draw in an audience. That was a great game that went down to the wire between two top 5 teams.

I agree that college football is more much interesting than baseball

Interesting it beat last year's Game 4. However, that was also the lowest rated game last year. I think the lead in of PSU-OSU helped, plus there wasn't a marque college game on last night. It's been a really good series. I think it's building interest as the series progresses.

When did Houston become a top 3 market in size?

Yeah, I thought Chicago was still 3. But I think what they mean when they call Houston "small-market" is just that is has a very localized fan base without general national appeal. I'd agree with that

I agree with this... AND I think the Dallas market is even bigger than Houston just because of the Cowboys... YES its A couple of 3-3 teams today, But just look at the ratings the Boys/ Redskins get oday....... It WILL be higher than the Steelers vs. the Lions tonight............
And the Texans play on CBS at least in Louisiana at the late game as well......

My mistake, one of the 3 biggest cities in the country, 8th biggest t.v. market. still formidable.
