As the Toronto Blue Jays get ready for Game 4 of the 2025 World Series, Canadians across the country have already smashed internet data usage records during the first three games.
Rogers Xfinity customers consumed 145,000 TB of data during Games 1, 2 and 3 – that’s the equivalent of streaming a three-minute video of Addison Barger hitting a grand slam 1.28 billion times.
“Canadians across the country are cheering on the Blue Jays and we’re proud to deliver the country’s most reliable internet to power the viewing experience of our customers at home,” said Mark Kennedy, Chief Technology Officer, Rogers.
By the numbers:
- During Games 1, 2 and 3, almost half of our TV customers watched the game on Rogers Xfinity TV
- During Game 3, which lasted 18 innings, our customers used 65,000 TB of data on the Rogers wireline network – the equivalent of sharing a photo of Alejandro Kirk hitting a home run 23 billion times
- During Games 1 and 2, our customers used over 80,000 TB on the Rogers wireline network
- Customers attending Game 1 at Rogers Centre used 6.8 TB of wireless data, the highest volume ever at a home game in Toronto
Over the last 20 years, Rogers has invested nearly $70 billion in our networks and continues to invest to deliver enhanced reliability and multi-gig speeds to almost eight million homes this year. These investments in network infrastructure combined with the introduction of Rogers Xfinity last year brings Canadians industry-leading internet technology on a world-class suite of products so they can game more, stream more and do more.
