All eyes have been on a star-studded World Series that pit teams from the top two media markets in the United States, and the television ratings reflected that.

Ratings for Game 3 of the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees surpassed those of the NFL's "Monday Night Football" game between the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers. The baseball game drew an average audience of 13.6 million across all Fox Sports platforms, eclipsing the average of 13.4 million for the football game on ESPN and ABC.

The Dodgers recorded a 4-2 victory over the Yankees in Game 3 on Monday to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series. Fans flocked to Game 4 on Tuesday with New York on the edge of elimination, and the Yankees responded with an emphatic 11-4 win.

Game 4 drew an average audience of 16.7 million across all Fox Sports platforms, easily the top showing for the Fall Classic thus far. Game 1 drew 15.2 million and Game 2 had 13.8 million.

Tuesday's Game 4 served as the most-watched baseball game since Game 7 of the 2019 World Series, with the Washington Nationals notching a 6-2 win over the Houston Astros.

Los Angeles rebounded from that Game 4 setback and overcame an early five-run deficit to post a 7-6 victory in Game 5 on Wednesday to clinch the World Series title. The ratings from that game are not yet available as of Thursday afternoon.
