Padres and Brewers meet in the playoffs for the first time. Get NLDS tickets

For the first time since their inception as expansion franchises back in 1969, the San Diego Padres and Milwaukee Brewers will collide in the postseason. The National League Division Series begins at American Family Field, featuring Milwaukee starter Jacob Misiorowski on the mound before the action shifts to PETCO Park for the subsequent games.

San Diego advanced past the Chicago Cubs in the Wild Card round, prompting manager Craig Stammen to praise his squad's current form. Oddsmakers have installed the Brewers as -180 favorites, though the Padres secured four of six victories against them during the regular season.
