The matchup for the 2026 NLCS is set after the Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers wrapped up their NLDS victories on Wednesday, both on the road.
Now, both teams will meet again in a rematch of last year's NLCS, which the Dodgers swept in four games.
On Thursday, both teams named their starting pitchers for Game 1 on Sunday. The Brewers will start Jacob Misiorowski, while Los Angeles will pitch Tarik Skubal.
This is a dream pitching matchup for baseball fans, as both are among the most electric arms in baseball. Skubal is a two-time Cy Young winner, while Misiorowski will likely win the NL award this year after leading the Major Leagues in ERA and strikeouts. Misiorowski is also the hardest-throwing pitcher in baseball.
Runs have been hard to come by this postseason, and that figures to be the case again on Sunday.
