The Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies will begin their best-of-five Division Series on Saturday. The Dodgers completed a two-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds in the Wild Card Series to advance to this point. The Phillies, meanwhile, earned a first-round bye by virtue of having the National League's second-best record.

The Cubs clinched a spot in the postseason on Sept. 17 and will be making their first playoff appearance in a full-length season since 2018. With a win Saturday, they clinched home-field advantage in their wild-card series with the Padres.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are gearing up to face the Philadelphia Phillies in an electrifying pitching duel in Game 1 of the National League Division Series.

“The Dodgers have agreed to a deal with Korean infielder Hyeseong Kim, the team announced on Friday. The deal is for three years and a guaranteed $12.5 million with an option for 2028-29 that could increase the value of the deal to $22 million,” MLB.com’s Brian Murphy wrote.

The most dynamic player in baseball got off to a red-hot start to the postseason, swatting two of the Dodgers' homers to take a 1-0 series lead over the Reds.
