The final games of the 2015 MLB postseason are fast approaching - and things are finally heating-up!

The Chicago Cubs take the field against the New York Mets in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series on Sunday, October 18 at 8:07 p.m. EST from beloved Citifield in Flushing, NY. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Game 2 division championship ballgame online - also catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

According to The Sports Daily, Chicago holds a better chance against New York in an official breakdown of the four remaining teams:

Cubs: "By shutting down the Pirates on Wednesday, Jake Arrieta can embark a road where few travel. It's one thing to be historically hot in the regular season. It's another to continue that hot streak into the postseason. There's no reason to believe he can't keep it up against the rival Cardinals. But Jake's magic act isn't the only Chicago showstopper. He's supported by several young standouts in the lineup (namely Anthony Rizzo and rookie Kris Bryant) who possess the talent which can offset inexperience along with a manger who's been here before."

Mets: "The anticipation that was building over the past few seasons gives way to reality. At last, the Mets are overpowering opponents with an imposing - and emerging - young rotation. Ranked fourth in team ERA, a one-through-four staff of Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Matt Harvey and Steven Matz poses a daunting prospect for any lineup. How they bridge the gap between the starters and closer Jeurys Familia remains a major question. So is New York's ability to beat the top NL teams, as the Mets offense got well against the league's bottom feeders."

Still, NY managed a Game 1 win on Saturday evening, and here's why according to CBS Sports:

1. Daniel Murphy hit another unlikely postseason homer.

2. David Wright stole his first base since April.

3. Kyle Schwarber made a bit of Cubs history.

4. Besides pitching well, Matt Harvey also had good velocity.

5. The Game 1 winner has a good chance of moving on.

6. For what it's worth, history suggests that the Mets have a good chance of winning Game 2.

New York cinched the NLDS against the Los Angeles Dodgers, while Chicago snagged a victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. The Kansas City Royals currently lead the American League Championship Series against the Toronto Blue Jays 2-0, and will play Game 3 on Monday evening (October 19).

Tonight's monumental ballgame will be broadcasted live on local sports channel TBS
