Criminal Minds: "Catching Out" gave baseball a run for its money in the overnight Nielsen ratings. Great job Criminal Minds!
At 9, CBS' "Criminal Minds" was the strongest alternative to the World Series: 13.8 million watched. An hour of "Deal or No Deal" was the bargain for 9 million. ABC's "Private Practice" pulled in 7.7 million. The CW's "Stylista" is headed for oblivion: 1.9 million followed the action.
