Television ratings for Game 3 of the World Series fell to a historic low, according to preliminary data released Thursday. The game, played on a day packed with major sporting events known as a "Sports Equinox," struggled to attract viewers amid heavy competition from other leagues.
The decline continues a trend of decreasing World Series viewership in recent years. Industry analysts attribute the drop to fragmented audiences, streaming options, and the overlap of multiple high-profile sports on the same day.
Major League Baseball and its broadcast partners are expected to review the numbers as they plan future scheduling and distribution strategies.
