Games 1 and 2 start times for Dodgers-Phillies NLDS revealed

The Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies will meet in the NLDS, pitting arguably the two best remaining teams together relatively early in the postseason. 

Because the Phillies (96-66) had a better regular-season record than the Dodgers (93-69), Philadelphia will have home-field advantage in the NLDS, with Citizens Bank Park set to host three of the five games if the series goes the full distance. 

All five games of the series will be broadcast on TBS, with the network's No. 1 crew led by play-by-play announcer Brian Anderson slated to be on the call.
