Turner and Knizner Advance to NLCS

Two former NC State baseball players have advanced to the National League Championship Series, and will face each other at 8:08pm on TBS.

Catcher Andrew Knizner didn’t see any action for the Cardinals in the NLDS in his first trip to the playoffs.

Shortstop Trea Turner was a key component in the Nationals advancing past the Dodgers in the NLDS, scoring 3 runs, with 6 hits and 3 doubles, hitting .286 in 5 games.

Turner loves to rock vintage NC State gear after major victories this postseason, rocking a Wolfpack rugby cap, and Red Football helmet after Washington’s Game 5 victory in the 10th inning over Los Angeles.
