The National League Championship Series will get underway Saturday night with a rematch from 2020 between the Atlanta Braves and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Dodgers punched their ticket Thursday night with a 2-1 win over the Giants as Cody Bellinger came through with an RBI single in the ninth. Max Scherzer closed the door in the ninth in somewhat controversial fashion.
As a division winner, the Braves will have home field advantage over the Dodgers in the series with Game 1 and 2 at Truist Park Saturday and Sunday.
