The Philadelphia Phillies face the Atlanta Braves in the National League Division Series after sweeping the Marlins in the Wild Card round.
The NL champion Phillies finished third last season in the NL East at 87-75, a full 14 games behind the 101-win Braves, only to beat them in four games in the 2022 NLDS.
The Braves were even better this season with a major league-best 104 wins and a sixth straight NL East crown – clinched last month in Philadelphia – while the Phillies again earned a wild card with 90 wins.
“It’s going to be an electric series and we can’t wait,” Bryce Harper said after Wednesday night’s win over the Miami Marlins.
