First, the results of last week's predictions:
— British Open, third and final rounds. Predictions: 2.6 and 3.3; final ratings: 2.4 and 3.3.
— Sunday Night Baseball, Red Sox-Yankees. Prediction: 1.6; final rating: 1.4.
— NASCAR Sprint Cup from New Hampshire. Prediction: 2.3; final rating: 2.1.
— Premier Boxing Champions (FOX). Prediction: 1.4; final rating: 1.1.
— LPGA Marathon Classic. Prediction: 0.4; final rating 0.7.
This week's predictions (all times Eastern):
NASCAR Sprint Cup from Indianapolis (3 p.m. Sunday, NBCSN). The absence of Dale Earnhardt Jr. would usually be bad news for NASCAR, but the return of Jeff Gordon is quite the consolation prize.
