2023 National League Championship Series
The 2023 National League Championship Series (NLCS) was the best-of-seven playoff in Major League Baseball's 2023 postseason between the defending National League champion and fourth-seeded Philadelphia Phillies and the sixth-seeded Arizona Diamondbacks for the National League (NL) pennant and the right to play in the 2023 World Series. The series began on October 16 and Game 7 was played on October 24. TBS/Max televised the games in the U.S. This was the second time in LCS history, and second year in a row, that two wild card teams faced each other. For the third straight full season, a team with less than 90 wins won the NLCS, as the 84-win Diamondbacks pulled off the upset to defeat Philadelphia in seven games. The Phillies were just the fourth team with home-field advantage to win the first two games of an LCS in the seven game series era (1985–present), but not win the series. The Diamondbacks would go on to lose in the 2023 World Series to the Texas Rangers in five games.
