South Philly will be the place to be this weekend with the Phillies hosting the Dodgers in the National League Division Series and the Eagles welcoming the Broncos to the Link.
The Phillies have homefield advantage in the best-of-five series. Game one on Saturday first pitch is 6:38pm as Cristopher Sanchez gets the ball for the Phillies against 3-time MVP Shohei Ohtani. Don't forget you can hear the game on 97.3 FM ESPN South Jersey and on the 973 ESPN Mobile App!
This will be the first time in MLB history that two 50+ home run hitters square off in the Playoffs. This is a classic matchup that will unfold in game one and two at the Bank Saturday and Monday. Games three and four are at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday and Thursday. Game Five, if necessary, back at Citizens Bank Park next Saturday.
The Eagles are 4-0 and look to remain undefeated on Sunday when they host the Denver Broncos at 1pm. Catch all the action on 97.3 ESPN radio with Merrill Reese and Mike Quick calling the game following The Locker Room with Billy Schweim.
The Eagles are undefeated despite the fact that their anemic offense ranks 30th Total Yards but they are 7th best Scoring Offense (27 Points Per Game) in the NFL. As a result, Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown has voiced his frustrations on social media but when he speaks to the media, he has claimed everything is good behind the scenes. In four games this year, A.J. Brown only has 151 yards receiving and one touchdown but he has more Targets (28) than any other Eagles player this season.
