The Atlanta Braves might have taken home the title of World Series Champion last night, but Fox received their first weekly ratings win of the Fall TV season<\/a>. After the 2020 World Series saw a record low viewership, we were interested to see how the 2021 games would compare and we are pleasantly surprised!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last year\u2019s record low viewership was credited to competition from the 2020 presidential election and the pandemic, but now that the world is in \u201cthe new norm\u201d, it seems like baseball was back in the hearts and homes of millions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a little context before we hit you with a bunch of numbers, the \u201crating\u201d is the percentage of television households tuned in to a broadcast. The \u201cshare\u201d is the percentage viewing a telecast among homes with TVs ON at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saturday\u2019s game received a 5.65 rating, 15 share and 10,511,000 viewers on Fox, which is up 12% from the 9.38 million who watched Game 4 last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunday\u2019s Game 5 drew a 7.38 rating, 18 shares and 13,644,000 viewers, which marks a 35% increase over the 10.1 million for the Dodgers 2020 win in Game 5 and a 19% rise over the 11.45 million viewers for the 2019 Astro\u2019s win in Game 5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it wasn\u2019t just a good week for Fox. Broadcast TV reigns supreme in viewership<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
