Struggling Yankees Attracting Record-setting Audiences

Despite the fact that the New York Yankees have exhibited a plethora of weaknesses during the first half of the current season and are 6 1/2 games behind arch-enemies the Boston Red Sox, which leads their division, viewership for the Yankees' games on the YES (Yankees Entertainment and Sports) Network has never been better. Broadcasting & Cable observed that Sunday's telecast of the Yankees versus the Kansas City Royals game drew a 6.5 rating, the second highest rated game (Red Sox games excepted) that has ever been broadcast on the Network.
