The 1999 National League Championship Series (NLCS), was held to determine the champion of the National League in Major League Baseball’s 1999 postseason. The 30th in NL history, it was held between two East Divisionrivals, the division champion and overall number one seed Atlanta Braves and the wild card New York Mets in a rematch of the very first NLCS from 1969.
After defeating the Mets in the NLCS in six games, the Braves would go on to lose in a sweep to the New York Yankees in the World Series in four games.
This was the first edition of the postseason where both teams from New York City appeared in the LCS, a phenomenon that has only repeated twice since (2000, 2024).
