Since the wild-card system began in 1995, there have been more NLCS played with either St. Louis, San Francisco or both (11) than without (9).
The Cards and Giants have been especially good in October over the past five seasons. Since 2010, they have:
• Filled seven of the past 10 spots in the NLCS.
• Won all five NL pennants (with the latest to be decided between them).
• Gone 49-14 (.778) in postseason games against all other teams.
• Gone 15-1 in postseason series against all other teams (including Wild-Card Games).

The best two teams are there. I can't wait for the series. Some amazing numbers for sure.
