The Dodgers vs Braves live stream is here: How to Watch NLCS Game 1 Online

Today's Dodgers-Braves live stream will pit these two clubs against each other in the National League Championship Series for the second straight year. Last year, Los Angeles beat Atlanta in seven innings to advance to the World Series. The Braves will try for a different result this year, and it all starts with this MLB live stream.

The Braves found themselves leading the Dodgers by three games to one in last season's NLCS, but could not complete it. Instead, L.A. fought back and took the series. Atlanta won the N.L. East this season, shut out the Brewers in four games in the divisional round, and now have a chance for revenge against the Dodgers.

Meanwhile, Los Angeles, which won its first World Series title in 32 years, finished the season with the second best record in baseball, but still had to play a wild card game against the Cardinals. They won that one, and then faced their divisional rivals, the Giants, and won that series in five innings. Now, they are looking to win back-to-back World Series titles and make their fourth appearance in the Fall Classic in five years.

The Dodgers NLDS against the Giants lived up to the hype. In fact, retired Dodgers play-by-play announcer Vin Scully called Game 5 "the most important game in the history of the rivalry." The Dodgers won 2-1 on Cody Bellinger's RBI single in the ninth inning. Mookie Betts had the biggest game for the Dodgers lineup, going 4-for-4 in five games.

The Braves had a variety of players step up in the divisional series against the Brewers. Joc Pederson was a pinch hitter with two home runs and five RBIs. Austin Riley hit safely in all four games, including a home run. In the playoffs, he is batting .333 with a .375 on base percentage.

Corey Knebel will face Max Fried of the Braves tonight. Knebel has pitched in three playoff games this year, allowing just one hit in 2.1 innings. Fried will make his second postseason start. The lefty pitched six scoreless innings against the Brewers in the divisional round, striking out nine.
