MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
Among all teams, the Red Sox had posted the highest rating, averaging a 12.1 on NESN, their owned and operated network. FSN North’s Brewers telecasts were averaging a 7.4, more than double last year’s mark and making for the biggest jump in the league. The White Sox games on Comcast SportsNet Chicago had seen the steepest drop, falling 56 percent to a 1.4 average.

The Nationals ratings are really awful
White Sox ratings falling through the floor
I see fields of green, Veeck's pinwheel lights
Cubs lose by day, Sox win at night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world.

Re: MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
If you were a White Sox fan, would you want to watch them this year? I don't think that's too surprising.
However, the Nationals are playing really good baseball down the stretch. It looks like they have some good young players and are building towards the future. This is a team that many thought would be even worse than the '62 Mets, and right now they are staying out of last place. They should have better ratings than what they are getting."They're going to send me back to Omaha, and I don't even live there." - Rube Baker

Re: MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
There are a lot of small market teams with meaningful ratings increases - how do these fans find time to watch baseball games when they're surely so busy joining bobby jr's campaign against payroll disparity

Re: MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
The Boston rating is staggering. NESN must beat the networks most nights.
Yankees is smaller than I would have thought and LA with 2 decent teams is awful.
Only people watching the White Sox now are the members of the Ken Harrelson Fan Club

Re: MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
Apart from the percentages, I'm not exactly sure what numbers I'm looking it. The Sox are averaging a 12.1 what? What are the numbers in parentheses

Re: MLB TV ratings up with 21 teams
Chisox, where did you get this data?
Keep in mind that the rating % should not necessarily be expected to be higher the larger the market, since it merely represents a % of all TVs tuned to the game. I also assume that none of these numbers take into account people getting these channels from outside the market area via EI, etc.
The ratings for the Rangers are a disgrace, as are (IMO) the ratings for the LA teams (yes, I know, these LA types are so busy with all their other life activities and the great weather that they don't watch..that is what is called a BAD FAN). The ratings for the Cubs are surprisingly low and I;d say the Marlins have surprisingly high ratings.
