2022 MLB playoffs: Bracket, ratings, schedule as Phillies take NLCS Game 3 over Padres; Astros lead Yankees

CBS Sports

A packed weekend of playoff baseball began Friday night in Philadelphia as the Phillies won NLCS Game 3 over the Padres to take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series. Over in the ALCS, the Houston Astros have a huge benefit. The Astros won both of the very first 2 video games in the house versus the New York Yankees. The Bronx Bombers will attempt to recover in Game 3 in the house on Saturday.

These playoffs started with 12 groups, however the Guardians, Dodgers, Braves, Mariners, Mets, Cardinals, Blue Jays and Rays have actually all been gotten rid of. The leading 2 groups in each league (the Astros and Yankees in the American League and the Dodgers and Braves in the National League) got byes and began their postseason journeys in the LDS round recently. With the Wild Card Series and 3 of the 4 Division Series in the books, the high stakes best-of-seven League Championship Series will begin in San Diego on Tuesday and in Houston on Wednesday. The best-of-seven World Series is arranged to begin on Friday, Oct. 28.

Below you’ll discover the schedule and results for each round of the postseason.
