I thought 2 teams from same division couldn't play each other...

cards vs pitt/cincy.......that's never happened before in the NLDS? why now?

The rule was changed

a couple years ago

where the top seed plays the #4 or wild card winner

and #2 plays #3

The 2012 playoffs banned the "no intra-division games in the division series" rule. Also, the Braves are the #2 seed while the Dodgers are the #3 seed.

Dodgers and Braves aren't on the same division LOL. Atlanta is East NL. Los Angeles is West NL

Rule change as of 2012. Try to keep up.

rule change

good
