MLB postseason field is set: Here's the schedule and how to watch

Mike Oz

Major League Baseball is down to its final four: the Houston Astros, Boston Red Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers and Milwaukee Brewers.

The two series kick off Friday (Brewers and Dodgers) and Saturday (Astros and Red Sox) and give us the best two teams by record in each league, so it seems like a fitting matchup on each side. It’s the Astros’ deep roster of hitters and pitchers against Boston’s star-studded group topped by Mookie Betts and Chris Sale. It’s the upstart Brewers and likely NL MVP Christian Yelich against the more-experienced Dodgers with Clayton Kershaw, Manny Machado and Justin Turner.
