Comments on: What’s good for baseball… http://riveraveblues.com/2009/10/whats-good-for-baseball-18565/ A New York Yankees Blog Mon, 28 May 2012 14:27:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Game 2 most watched Sat. night LCS since 2004 | River Avenue Blues http://riveraveblues.com/2009/10/whats-good-for-baseball-18565/#comment-635283 Game 2 most watched Sat. night LCS since 2004 | River Avenue Blues Mon, 19 Oct 2009 18:01:23 +0000 http://riveraveblues.com/?p=18565#comment-635283 [...] As we know, the Yankees haven’t been in the American League Championship Series since 2004, and Saturday night’s game was a 13-inning thriller that ended with an Angels’ error shortly after 1 a.m. It is, therefore, not surprising to me that Game 2 was the highest rated Saturday night LCS game since the Yanks and Red Sox squared off in 2004. According to Nielsen numbers, 9.4 million people watched the game — a 53 percent increase from 2008’s Saturday night 11-inning ALCS Game 2. In fact, ratings are up 44 percent for the ALCS over last year. With two teams from the country’s largest media markets squaring off, American League baseball is enjoying a postseason ratings renaissance.

It really makes watching the game painful. we are in NY it was a great game 2 until these 2 a-holes started saying Angeles need to do something and they started hitting & they continue to talk negatively about the Yankees.

If and when the Yankees do pull out from the friggin MLB and no one watches your backwaters shit farming team play each other. And all the teams can't generate enough to sustain, you can go cry yourself a shit river.
