Cubs Lose Close One To Cardinals

Cincinnati Reds

But the Philadelphia Phillies aren’t the only team with good players. The National League saw some big movements this season, as two teams came out of nowhere to make the post-season. This is the first time you can get Reds playoff tickets in a long time, so make sure you take advantage of that. The Cincinnati Reds have been great all year led by MVP candidate Joey Votto. Staff ace Johnny Cueto is among the best in the NL, and Bronson Arroyo has been in pressure situation as well. With Votto and a lineup filled out by the likes of Scott Rolen, Jay Bruce and Brandon Phillips, opposing pitchers will have a hard time getting through the lineup. Those players give the Reds a great shot at selling cheap World Series tickets this year. Dusty Baker has been in baseball for ages, and he knows what you have to do win games in playoffs. You can bet that Reds playoffs tickets are going to be hot sellers, and the Great American Ballpark is going to be full of rowdy Reds fans. Be there for all the action, and get those MLB playoff tickets as fast as you can!

Philadelphia Phillies

Aiming to get back to the World Series for the third year in a row, Philadelphia Phillies playoff tickets are the hottest thing in Philly right now. Should the Phils get back to the Fall Classic, they would become the first team since WWII to get to the World Series three years in a row. Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins and the rest of the Phillies have been here before and know what it takes to win in October. The Phillies also arguably the best post-season starting rotation not just in the NL, but in MLB as a whole. I mean Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt and Cole Hamels? That is incredible! They have the hitting and the pitching, and Charlie Manuel has what it takes to win playoff games. Should they go ahead and sell those NLCS playoff tickets the Phils will be in great shape. The Phillies are going to be a really good team this post-season, and with home field advantage throughout, the Phillies should be great for fans. They are on pace to finish five whole games against the rest of the NL playoff spots, so clearly the Phillies would be the favorite to win the whole thing.

San Diego Padres

The other big surprise in the National League is the emergence of the San Diego Padres as the best ream in the NL West. Led by staff ace Matt Latos and heavy hitter Adrian Gonzales, the Padres are ready to aim for the World Series. At the beginning of the year nobody gave them a chance, but lo and behold SD Padres playoff tickets are on sale anyway. PETCO Park is going to be THE place to be in October, don’t you want to be there and watch the Pad Squad? This is as great as it gets for baseball fans, and this team is eager to win some playoff games. You know that San Diego would explode if fans got to see the Padres in the World Series, but the team has to win some games before that happens. The Padres are going to move their fair share of NLDS tickets online that for sure, but it would be even more so if they move on to the National League Championship Series.

San Francisco Giants

Laying claim to one of the most formidable rotations in the big leagues, Giants baseball playoff tickets are going to be very hot this year. Tim Lincecum might be the best pitcher throwing right now, and fans are eager to see how he responds to playoff baseball. With Kung-Fu Panda Pablo Sandoval hitting the ball as well as he can, the Giants are going to be tough to beat. And Aubrey Huff has been stellar since coming to the National League, and he could end up being the leader that takes the Giants to the playoffs. If you can watch a baseball playoff game at AT&T Park you are in for a something special. They’ll have their hands full in the NLDS, but they have good players ready for action.

Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves are hoping to get back to the playoffs, but after looking great all year they faltered a but down the stretch. Entering the last games of the year, Brave playoff tickets are being sold, as fans will get their money back if the team doesn’t make the cut. Fans were hoping they’d be able to send of Bobby Cox with some World Series ticket prices online, and that hope is still alive. The Braves have some good hitters and pitchers who have experience playing when it matters. With Tim Hudson and Derek Lowe eager for another chance to win in October, they are going to have to lay it all on the line. You can see some great baseball in Atlanta right now, and the race to the finish is going to be crazy. You do not want to miss out on all the fun happening at Turner Field, so make sure you check out all the action. Be there for all the baseball action you can handle and get those Braves tickets ASAP.

Yes the National League has some good teams ready for battle, all aiming to get to the World Series. You can bet October baseball is going to be crazy, so do your best to get out there. MLB playoff tickets are waiting for fans like you, and if you are lucky enough to have a team in the playoffs you are going to see a good time. Get those post-season baseball tickets right away and watch all the action in person!
