The 2014 National League Division Series was two best-of-five-game series to determine the participating teams in the 2014 National League Championship Series. The Washington Nationals, Los Angeles Dodgers, and St. Louis Cardinals (seeded 1–3 based on record, respectively) and San Francisco Giants—played in two series. Fox Sports 1 carried most of the games, with two of the games on MLB Network.

These matchups were:

(1) Washington Nationals (East Division champion) vs. (5) San Francisco Giants (Wild Card Game winner): Giants win series 3–1.
(2) Los Angeles Dodgers (West Division champion) vs. (3) St. Louis Cardinals (Central Division champion): Cardinals win series 3–1.

The Giants would go on to defeat the Cardinals in the NLCS, then win the 2014 World Series, defeating the American League champion Kansas City Royals.
