Game 2 may play out the same way as the first game with Aaron Nola and Blake Snell set to start the game. On paper, Philadelphia may have the advantage in this pitching matchup, but the unpredictability of the MLB postseason will keep fans on the edge of their seats.

Key players for Game 2 of the NLCS

The eyes of the MLB universe will be focused on San Diego as the two remaining teams in the National League will continue their series on Wednesday afternoon.

The key player for the Phillies in Game 2 of the NLCS will be Aaron Nola. In one game against the Padres in June 2022, he went 7.0 innings and recorded 10 strikeouts.

"The Padres have a hitters meeting in an hour or so. Their catcher, Austin Nola, is quite familiar with Phillies starter Aaron Nola today. “He will have some say in it,” Bob Melvin says." - AJ Cassavell

San Diego will need superstar third baseman Manny Machado to improve upon a lackluster Game 1 where he went 0-4. The $300 million man will need to perform if the Padres have any hope of avoiding a 2-0 deficit in the series.

Can Bryce Harper and the Phillies take a commanding 2-0 series lead back home to Philly, or will Manny Machado and the Padres tie it up? Only time will tell, as very little separates the two teams.
