Game 6 of the World Series took over Tuesday night, hitting an impressive home run in fast-affiliate ratings. The Fox broadcast earned a 3.8 in the adults 18-49 demographic and 15.31 million viewers who watched the Washington Nationals force a series-deciding Game 7 with a 7-2 victory on the road against the Houston Astros. Game 7 is tonight.

The Game 6 ratings grew 1.4 points in the demo compared with the early numbers for Game 5 (that’s the game where President Donald Trump was booed), and is up nine tenths from last Tuesday’s Game 1. It is likely that last night’s live broadcast will have greater adjustments in finals later today, but it easily gave Fox the overall victory in both demo and viewers for the night.
