2025 World Series Game 7 Most-Watched Game Since 2017
How can you tell the “health” of a league? By how many people are interested. Not only did the MLB see an uptick in ratings during the playoffs but viewers tuned right in till the very end. In fact, the 2025 World Series Game 7 is the Most-Watched Game Since 2017.
Therefore, the very last game of the Major League Baseball season had tons of eyeballs. Of course, it helped to have a large market team competing, the Los Angeles Dodgers. But high ratings this year is impressive because viewership beat last season’s World Series between the Yankees and Dodgers. Proving that different regions competing can still be a ratings success.
Moreover, friends up north, the Toronto Blue Jays and LA collectively brought more of a global audience and presence to the game. When the series first began, the league had revealed that,
“With a Canadian team in the World Series for the first time in 32 years and two rosters filled with star international players, the 2025 World Series presented by Capital One is reaching large global audiences driven by viewership across the United States, Canada, and Japan.
Game One of the 2025 World Series by Capital One averaged 32.6 millioncombined viewers in the United States, Canada and Japan. This marks the largest combined audience for an MLB game from those three countries since Game Seven of the 2016 World Series. The two game average of the three countries combined is 30.5 million viewers.
Games One and Two averaged a combined audience of 19.8 million viewers in the U.S. and Canada, which is the largest combined audience from those two countries for the first two games of the World Series since at least 2016 and a +27% increase over last year (15.6 million).”
So then, from the very start, baseball fans from all over were interested in the World Series. Tuning in to see a competitive battle and a victor crowned.

What about Game 7? How did this series finale go? Well, over 25 million watched as the Dodgers repeated taking down the Blue Jays 5-4.
More specifically, World Series 2025 Game 7 viewership averaged 25.98 million viewers on Fox, making it the most-watched World Series game since 2017. The Los Angeles Dodgers’ victory over the Toronto Blue Jays drew a 10% increase over the 2019 Game 7; and peaked at 31.54 million viewers during the final quarter hour.
Furthermore, the combined U.S. and Canadian viewership was the largest for an MLB game since 2016. With early estimates suggesting the Canadian audience alone could have been around 10 million viewers. So Game 7 did numbers. And very good in Canada for an event outside of the NHL realm. These ratings prove that interest in the MLB remains strong and that the global audience is expanding.
