'UFC' led into a meager rerun of 'The Prank Panel' (0.09). On NBC, 'Baking It' (0.12, 0.00) held steady and led into another encore of 'America's Got Talent' (0.13). CBS reran 'NCIS' (0.09) and '48 Hours' (0.11/0.14). 'Greatest Geek Year Ever: 1982' (0.04, 0.00) was stable on finale night but lost to the repeats of 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?' (0.05/0.05) that followed

Finals Update: 'MLB: Regional Coverage' (+0.1) adjusted up. The repeat of 'America's Got Talent' (-0.1) adjusted down.
