NLCS 2017: Dodgers vs. Cubs TV schedule
The Chicago Cubs face off against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2017 National League Championship Series. Here’s your complete TV schedule.
One team made it through the NLDS in a quick three-game sweep while the other went five games in a late-inning nail-biter. One team hasn’t been to the World Series since 1988 while the other is fighting for back to back World Series titles. The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Chicago Cubs both have a lot on the line and that means the best of seven game National League Championship Series is going to be fun to watch.
The Los Angeles Dodgers made quick work of the Arizona Diamondbacks in the NLDS, with 9-5 and 8-5 wins in Game 1 and 2 respectively. The Dodgers have been resting up since claiming a 3-1 victory in Game 3 on October 9, and that makes them a big threat to a Cubs team that had to empty its bullpen to stay alive against the Nationals.
The Cubs started their NLDS with a 3-0 shutout over the Nats in Game 1 but the Nationals rallied to a 6-3 win in Game 2. The Cubs pulled out a 2-1 win in Game 3 but fell apart in a 5-0 shutout loss to the Nats in Game 4. Game 5 was hard-fought with the Cubs coming out victorious in a 9-8 win.
All games in the NLCS will be broadcast on TBS.
