Well, we got what the fans wanted this year. Many fans were pissy about the Dodgers run thru the playoffs, and being eliminated by the Brewers sure made a lot of people happy. I’m sure MLB and the networks are not thrilled with the end result. But no one is mentioning the FACT that small market TampaBay and Milwaukee are producing some damn good ratings in watching the World Series. You gotta love the fact that MLB is saying we need a salary cap for the small market teams to compete….and low and behold they are eating their words with the Rays and Brewers , traditionally in the bottom of team payroll, but here in the World Series. Game 1: Averaged 12.2 million viewers, which is a pretty damn good figure for a World Series matchup.

The Milwaukee market, despite being the smallest in MLB, showed rating of 33.9 and a 70 share, indicating that it wasn’t that boring of a matchup after all. Also contributing to high TV ratings for the 2026 MLB World Series was the fact that the Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays, were both seeking their first title ever. Hey, 2016 was like that too with the Cubs vs the Indians. How could you not want both teams to win, right. I think THIS fact really draws in the average viewer to see if one of these teams can FINALLY get a championship.
