SportsMLB World Series: Why did baseball’s biggest stage struggle for viewership?

The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Tampa Bay Rays to claim their first World Series title, but this year’s series averaged an estimated 11.82 million viewers, below the previous two years. The teams’ comparatively low payrolls and smaller markets may have contributed to the weaker audience, which also lagged behind several other major US sports events.
