MLB’s ‘Home Run Derby,’ All-Star Game Top Live Viewership: The Week in Sports Ratings

Home Run Derby ESPN Univision Gold SportsMedia Watch
Elias Diaz of the Colorado Rockies hits the go-ahead home run in the eighth inning of the 2023 MLB All-Star Game.

Fox Sports and ESPN’s coverage of Major League Baseball All-Star festivities generated a ratings home run among last week’s live sports telecasts.  

Fox’s July 11 All-Star Game broadcast drew 7 million viewers to top all sports events for the week, according to Nielsen numbers published by SportsMedia Watch. The contest, won by the National League for its first victory over the American League since 2012, was the least-watched baseball All-Star game, dropping 7% from the previous low set last year. The game, however, still remains the most-watched All-Star Game among the major sports, according to SportsMedia Watch.
