The only difference between the Phillies' NLCS roster from their NLDS roster is that instead of Nick Nelson, the Phillies will have right-handed relief pitcher David Robertson, who they acquired at the MLB trade deadline from the Chicago Cubs for pitching prospect Ben Brown.

The Phillies will carry 13 position players and 13 pitchers on their NLDS roster.

The Phillies are playing in their first NLCS since 2010, when they fell to the San Francisco Giants, who would go on to win the World Series.

The first two games of the series will be played in San Diego Tuesday and Wednesday night. Both teams will have Thursday off as a travel day, before playing game three, game four and game five (if necessary) in Philadelphia Friday, Saturday and Sunday. If a game six and game seven are necessary, those games will be played in San Diego Monday and Tuesday.

The Phillies open the NLCS Tuesday night at 8:03 p.m. ET against the Padres at Petco Park in San Diego.
