Saturday's third round coverage drew a 1.3 overnight, marking the best Saturday rating for the event since '08.
NOTES: Fox drew a 1.5 overnight for the broadcast net's first MLB regional coverage of the season, up from a 1.2 overnight last year. Coverage on Saturday was highlighted by Dodgers-Cardinals....NBC drew a 0.8 for its second iteration of "Premier Boxing Champions" on Saturday afternoon. The net drew a 1.9 overnight for its first "PBC" telecast, which aired on a Saturday night in April.
