MLB Sets NLCS Schedule: Brewers Host Dodgers Starting Oct. 11

The published schedule includes a weekday afternoon Game 2 start that could force TV windows and ALCS timing to shift.

Overview

  • Major League Baseball announced the full game-by-game NLCS slate on Thursday, October 8, with Game 1 set for Sunday, October 11 at American Family Field.
  • Milwaukee has home-field advantage after a 103-win regular season and will host Games 1 and 2 with the series shifting to Dodger Stadium for Games 3–5.
  • Game 2 carries an early local start in Los Angeles at 2 p.m. Pacific, a weekday afternoon time many outlets called inconvenient for fans.
