The 2021 National League Division Series were two best-of-five-games series in Major League Baseball (MLB) to determine the participating teams of the 2021 National League Championship Series. The three divisional winners, seeded first through third, and a fourth team — determined by the NL Wild Card Game — played in two series. These matchups were:
- (1) San Francisco Giants (NL West champions) vs. (4) Los Angeles Dodgers (Wild Card Game winner): Dodgers win series 3–2.
- (2) Milwaukee Brewers (NL Central champions) vs. (3) Atlanta Braves (NL East champions): Braves win series 3–1.
The team with the better regular season record (higher seed) of each series hosted Games 1, 2, and (if necessary) 5, while the lower seeded team hosted Game 3 and 4.[1][2]
The Braves would go on to defeat the Dodgers in six games in the 2021 National League Championship Series, and would then defeat the American League champion Houston Astros in six games in the 2021 World Series.
