How low can the ratings go? Fox-TV is finding out
America just doesn't seem to care much about a Cardinals-Tigers World Series.
This year's series is plummeting toward the lowest TV ratings in history. Through three games (and before Thursday's matchup) between the Tigers and Cardinals, the Fox network drew just 9.9 percent of the 111.4 million U.S. households with televisions, according to figures from Nielsen Media Research. That's 7 percent below last year's 10.6 rating through three games, which featured the White Sox and Astros.
Last year's final World Series rating was 11.1, the lowest in history -- although it looks like the Cards and Tigers will lower that number.
If it's any consolation to MLB, they can look at NASCAR, where the ratings for the entire season have been down about 12 percent -- 29 of this year's 32 races so far have drawn worse ratings than the previous year.

Who cares if people in New York or California watched this years World Series. It wouldnt make a difference to me if Missouri was the only state who watched it. Ya know what, the St. Louis Cardinals won the World Series, making them the best baseball team in 2006.
*Didn't watch. Sorry for that.
Actually a lot of Missouri didn't watch either. Baseball season ends as soon as football starts for a lot of us.
Well for me, baseball season is a year round thing, and football season doesnt start for me untill the super bowl.
