2023 MLB playoffs TV schedule: Game times, live stream with Phillies vs. Braves leading busy Wednesday

Wednesday is another busy day in the 2023 Major League Baseball postseason with three games on the schedule. Phillies-Braves, Twins-Astros and Diamondbacks-Dodgers are all in action, and both Houston and Arizona are one win away from reaching the LCS round. The Twins and Dodgers, meanwhile, are fighting to keep their seasons alive. The next team that advances in the playoff bracket will be joining the Rangers in baseball’s final four.

Texas finished off a sweep of the Orioles on Tuesday night and advanced to the ALCS for the first time since 2011. The Rangers will be off until Sunday, and will face either the Astros or Twins. Houston took a 2-1 lead in that ALDS matchup with a Game 3 win on Tuesday. The Astros can advance to the ALCS for the seventh year in a row with another victory over Minnesota.

On the NL side of the playoff bracket, the Braves and Phillies are tied 1-1 in the best-of-five series and the NLDS moves to Philadelphia for Game 3 on Wednesday. Atlanta picked up a dramatic, come-from-behind win in Game 2 on Monday to avoid going in an 0-2 hole. The Dodgers were not as fortunate. The NL’s No. 2 seed has its back against the wall against the Diamondbacks, and L.A. needs three wins in a row to avoid an NLDS exit for the second straight postseason.

Seven teams remain in the playoff bracket as the Marlins, Brewers, Blue Jays and Rays were all eliminated from the playoffs in the wild-card round.

The ALDS and NLDS are best-of-five series and the round could last through Saturday, Oct. 14. The 2023 MLB playoffs will last until at least Oct. 31, and a World Series Game 7 would take place on Saturday, Nov. 4.
