According to baseball's television ratings, Jeff Mathis (in angels jersey), Jimmy Rollins (in phillies jersey) and the rest of the late-inning heroes have been very suitable for business since the end of the regular season.
Major League Baseball said on Tuesday that including the play-in game between the Tigers and Twins, which technically was a regular-season affair, overall TV viewership is up to 13 percent over last year. The numbers included a pair of dramatic finishes on Monday, when Mathis of the Angels and Rollins of the Phillies delivered doubles in their respective League Championship Series.
Those thrillers continued an jam-packed in October with drama. Entering Tuesday's Game 4 of the American League Championship Series, 11 of the 21 games have been decided by one run since the final regular season on Sunday.
