World Series TV ratings up big from 2008

NEW YORK — Television ratings for the World Series are rebounding from last year’s record lows.

The Yankees’ 3-1 win over the Phillies on Thursday night on Fox earned an 11.7 fast national rating and 19 share. That’s up 44 percent from the 8.1/13 for last year’s Phillies-Rays Game 2.

The network said on Friday it’s the highest-rated Game 2 since the Red Sox-Cardinals in 2004.

Ratings represent the percentage of all households with televisions tuned into a program and shares represent the percentage of all homes with TVs in use at the time.

Fox is a unit of News Corp.
