Dodgers-Blue Jays World Series Game 7 Set Viewership Records In United States & Canada
"The winner-take-all matchup saw 27.3 million viewers tune in on Fox, making it the most-watched World Series game since 2017. The network also had its highest viewership for a Fall Classic and MLB postseason as a whole in eight years. Meanwhile, Game 7 of the World Series drew an average audience of 10.9 million viewers on the Rogers network in Canada. It was the most-watched English-language broadcast in the country since the 2010 Winter Olympics."
"The Dodgers overcame a three-run deficit to win back-to-back World Series titles. It was a game that featured just about everything, including a benches-clearing incident in the fourth inning. Miguel Rojas evened the score in the top of the ninth with a one-out home run before making a spectacular force play in the bottom half of the inning to keep the game tied."
"Game 7 of the World Series also averaged a combined 51 million viewers across the United States, Canada and Japan. That made it the the most-watched MLB game since Game 7 of the 1991 World Series. Game 7 carried high stakes for both the Dodgers and Blue Jays. L.A. was looking to become baseball's first repeat champion in 25 years, and Toronto had most of Canada supporting them in their first World Series appearance since 1993."
