Final Thoughts:
Braves have avenged their loss in last year's NLCS by defeating Los Angeles Dodgers. Eddie Rosario is the MVP of the NLCS. 

For the Dodgers, they fought hard but their starting pitching ran out of gas. Questions about Max Scherzer, Trevor Bauer, Kenley Jansen, Chris Taylor, etc. 

Braves will head to Houston to face the Astros in the 2021 World Series. Game 1 on Tuesday Night.
