ALCS And FOX “Vs” TBS Notes

Tonight, the home team, Houston Astros with a (3-2) series lead bid for their third pennant in game 6 on Fox Sports 1, vs the New York Yankees, the latter forcing a 6th game last night, in quest of their 41st pennant.

Once again Fox got a longer LCS than TBS, which telecast the Nationals sweep of the Cardinals in the NLCS.

In 13 seasons (’07-2019) of both Fox and TBS each telecasting one LCS, Fox gets its 80th game tonight (maybe an 81st tomorrow night) an average of over 6 per season.

Meanwhile TBS has averaged a 5 game series, 65 games in those 13 seasons. They had but one 7 game series, that the ’08 ALCS and this was the 5th time they had a 4 game sweep. Only in ’08 did TBS get more LCS games than Fox.
