The NLCS is well underway and after a pair of upsets from the San Diego Padres and Philadelphia Phillies to get here, this series has been nothing short of exhilarating. Both teams playing in the NLCS this year were bottom seeds, and whoever wins this series will go on to play in the World Series.
The Phillies haven’t made it to a World Series matchup in 13 years, and it’s been 24 years since the Padres have played in the World Series. Both teams had to face the New York Yankees in their last World Series matchup and things are trending that this will not be the case this year. The two teams will continue to face off today in a best-of-seven series that is currently tied 1-1.
