Now that the respective Wild Card Games are in the books, the MLB playoff bracket is officially set with the eight teams that are in pursuit of the World Series.
As the top seed in the National League, the Los Angeles Dodgers are taking on the Washington Nationals after their come-from-behind victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night.
The series is set to begin Thursday at Dodger Stadium with Walker Buehler starting opposite Patrick Corbin, which is just one of many great pitching matchups expected to come in this series.
As is normally the case, the first two games will be on back-to-back days on Thursday and Friday, both being night games this year. Game 3 at Nationals Park on Sunday will also be a night game, and start times have not yet been announced for the final two games of the series if they are required.
All of the Dodgers’ NLDS games will be televised on TBS, which will also carry the NL Championship Series; Fox will handle broadcasting duties for the World Series. Streaming of postseason games can be completed via third-party subscription services such as SlingTV, PlayStation Vue, YouTube TV, Hulu and others.
Below is the complete 2019 MLB postseason schedule with the dates, available start times and TV information.
