Phillies vs. Cardinals Livestream: How to Watch Game 2 of the Wild Card Series Online

Baseball’s postseason has a new three-game wild card format, and the wildest Game 1 on Friday ended with a six-run ninth inning by Philadelphia, powering the Phillies to stunning comeback victory against the Cardinals. In today’s Game 2 contest, St. Louis faces elimination in what could be the final game for future hall-of-famers Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina.

The Phillies send ace Aaron Nola to the mound, and he’ll be opposed by Miles Mikolas. Game 2 starts today at 7:37 p.m. CT (8:37 p.m. ET) on ESPN2.
