"

The St. Louis Cardinals and San Francisco Giants are playing live on the NLCS MLB playoffs schedule and the game from AT&T Park starts up at 8 pm ET and is on TV from Fox and streaming online from Fox Sports Go and the MLB.com website as SF leads the series 2-1 and the matchup has Shelby Miller and Ryan Vogelsong on the mound for the teams.

The Giants took advantage of a late error by the Cardinals in the game on Tuesday and they got the 5-4 win and now they have the chance to close the series at home. The Royals went up 3-0 on the Orioles and that means they are basically in and the Giants could make it two wild card teams in the World Series if they can get it done at home. The team got a break after Randy Choate threw the ball away in the 10th, but they put themselves in that position by getting men on base.

The Giants have Ryan Vogelsong on the mound and he only has the third best ERA ever in the postseason coming into the start. Vogelsong has been as good as anyone for the Giants in his postseason career and now he has the chance to get on the mound again. Past playoff hero Brandon Crawford scored the winning run of the game for the Giants and that came after the team lost on a walk off home run from the Cardinals and Kolten Wong in the previous game.

The Giants tied that game up late before losing it in the ninth inning and while Vogelsong is only 0-2 with a 5.30 Era against the Cardinals since winning Game 6 two years ago and now he has the chance to bounce back. Back in 2012 when the team made a run to the World Series, Vogelsong was great against the Cardinals with one run and four hits in seven innings in both Game 2 and Game 6 and he has a 3-0 record with a 1.19 ERA in his 2012 playoff starts.

The Cardinals have had to deal with Yadier Molina being out of the lineup with an injury and they came in after a great series against the Dodgers and now they have to rally. The team gave up the game on Tuesday with an error and the cards really have no margin for error now with the way the Giants play. The Cardinals won the NL Central this season while the Giants won the wild card and they could be the latest casualty after the Nationals, Angels and Athletics were all defeated by wild card teams in the AL and NL.

The Cardinals and Giants have been the perennial winners in the NL over the past five years and now the teams will battle it out to finish this series. San Francisco comes in with a 2-1 lead and they have dropped just two games during this postseason and they have a solid streak of playing well dating back to winning the World Series in 2012, winning 26-ish games over that span.
