Impressive Number of Viewers Watch Angels beat Yankees


An impressive number of viewers watched ALCS game #5. From overnight Nielsen ratings;

"Fox is getting a lot better luck with the ALCS this season than they did with the NLCS last season. From 8-11p, ALCS Game 5 (Yankees v. Angels) delivered a 3.3/8 among Adults 18-49. The final ratings this afternoon are expected to make this the highest rating game of the series. It’s well ahead of last year’s NLCS Game 5 on FOX (Phillies v. Dodgers, Wednesday 10/15/08) by +27% among Adults 18-49 (3.3/9 vs. 2.6/7). The best news for Fox is that the Angels won, pushing the series to at least 6 games."

Here's a link to the TV rating scoreboard.

That game had to have caused a few of those viewers to call 911.

It was the first time as an Angels fan I had to actually look away from the TV when Fuentes was pitching last night because I was having breathing difficulties.

Me too.

I was actually hyper-ventilating.

No matter what happens from here on, it has been a great season.

I actually had a similar problem

I was so worked up over the game, that I started to breathe heavily and feel dizzy and ill like I was going to pass out.

I have two comments:

1) Unfortunately, most of those viewers were bandwagon Yankee fans hoping to see them clinch it.

2) The good news is that we’re more likely to see a Game 7 with ratings like that.
