2015 NATIONAL LEAGUE BASEBALL DIVISION SERIES
October 9, 2015  | By David Bianculli

TBS, 5:30 p.m. ET

 
The more baseball history you know, the more meaningful these National League playoff games seem to be. The first of today’s two contests, Game 1 of the Chicago Cubs vs. the St. Louis Cardinals contest, pits these two teams against one another for the first time in postseason play.  And, of course, the Cubs are on a long-standing quest, because the team hasn’t won a World Series since… well, even casual fans know the rest. And after that game, another National League Game 1, this one featuring the New York Mets at the Los Angeles Dodgers, begins at 9:30 p.m. ET. And baseball fans who know their history know full well, even if they’re not old enough to remember firsthand, when the Dodgers were a team from Brooklyn.
