Philadelphia Phillies Win TV Ratings For 2011 – A second-half surge in TV viewership propelled the Philadelphia Phillies to the top spot among Major League Baseball ’s regional sports network (RSN) ratings this season. The team ended the season with a 9.1 rating on Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia, edging out the second place St. Louis Cardinals (9.0) on FS Midwest. That difference shrank considerably during the season’s final week, as the Cardinals set RSN ratings records while outlasting the Atlanta Braves for a wild card slot on the season’s final day.
