After summarily dismissing the overmatched St. Louis Cardinals in two games, the Phillies move on to the NLDS, where they will theoretically face some tougher competition in the form of the Atlanta Braves.
The Braves captured the National League East with 101 wins and are the defending World Series champions. Those are nifty little achievements to be sure, but they will count for absolutely nothing once the first pitch is thrown on Tuesday.
Atlanta Braves
Record: 101-61 (First place in National League East)
Season series in review
The record between the Phillies and Braves was even until an unfortunate mid-September series in Atlanta went poorly for the Phillies.
