If the Chicago Cubs win today, they advance from the National League Wild Card Series to the National League Division Series (NLDS). They will face their division rivals, the Milwaukee Brewers, in the NLDS starting later this week. This means the Cubs continue in the MLB postseason with a chance to compete for the National League pennant and eventually the World Series. Tickets for the Cubs' home games at Wrigley Field in the NLDS go on sale the day after the win, indicating the official start of the next playoff round at their home stadium.
