Fox Ratings Hit Homer on Bailey's No-Hitter






Steve Watkins from the Business Courier reports that Fox Sports Ohio reaped the benefits of Homer Bailey's no-hitter.

The network had no fallout for Bailey's choice of language in the post-game interview.  Live TV has those risks.

Wednesday night Thom Brennaman erroneously mentioned the wrong sponsor in an on-air promotion.  The question is whether there would be more fallout from that.

When one thinks about it, Homer's word hurt no one.  Brennaman's gaffe actually had a victim.
