Game five of the World Series between the Kansas City Royals and New York Mets, televised Sunday on Fox, hit a ratings home run, improving on last year’s numbers for game five by a whopping 43%, based on Nielsen overnights.

Fox reports that Sunday’s game delivered an 11.7 overnight household rating with a 19 share, 43% better than the 8.2/13 for game five of the Giants-Royals series a year ago.

The Royals came from behind in the ninth inning Sunday, tying the game after trailing 2-0, then went on to win the game 7-2 in 12 innings to put the Series away.

The overnight rating was the best for a game five of the World Series since the Yankees-Phillies delivered a 12.8/20 in 2009.
