Tied teams are designated as A, B, C, and D. Choice for one of these designations is first given to the team winning the tie-breakers (listed below). While A is usually the "best" designation, there are some scenarios where C has a different path to the postseason. If a division title is up for grabs, then those divisional teams will select from the first designations (A, B,...). On Day 1, A will host B and C will host D (if there is no fourth team, C will be considered to have won this game). Games on Day 2 may occur as follows: If the teams are all competing for 1 playoff spot, then the A/B winner will host the C/D winner for that spot. If 3 teams, not all tied for the same division lead, are competing for 2 playoff spots, C will host the A/B loser for the second spot. Determining team designations The order in which teams pick their designations (A, B, C, D) will be determined by the following 5-step tie-breaking system. If there is a tie for both wild card and division title spots, then the first designations will match teams competing for their division title. Winning/Losing season series against each of the other tied teams (only if a 3 way tie) Winning percentage among all tied teams Winning percentage in intradivision games Winning percentage in the last half of intraleague play If still tied, the next most recent intraleague game is added into this winning percentage (skipping games between tied teams) until not all teams are tied. If at any given step some, but not all, teams remain tied, then those teams that are still tied revert to Step 1.
