the national radio broadcast of the NLCS is on ESPN Radio and will be called by Jon Sciambi and Doug Glanville, who also called Dodgers-Reds in the wild card round

yes the first two games' start times were already announced two days ago

Eric Stephen @ericstephen.bsky.social · 15h

last year's LCS for days with two games were scheduled for 1:08pm PT for Game 2 in LA, 4:38pm PT for Yankees-Guardians G1

Other three day were planned 2:08/5:08pm PT games

Eric Stephen @ericstephen.bsky.social · 15h

Looking at the postgame transcripts, I didn't see anything from the Brewers mentioning Game 1, but that'd be my guess -- Quintana Game 1, Peralta Game 2

Eric Stephen @ericstephen.bsky.social · 16h

I expect a lot of ~5pm PT starts, and something like ~1-2pm if they have to do a day game

Thursday is NLCS G3 & ALCS G4
Friday is NLCS G4 & ALCS G5

One of those in LA will certainly be a day game

ALCS G2 got the day game Monday (NLCS G1), and ALCS G7 will surely be the night game (NLCS G6)
