| Interested to learn what tiebreaker is used to determine the East or West division champion when two teams in the same East or West division have identical records? In MLB the rule for division ties at season end is: "Breaking ties without playoff games. 1) The team with the best record in head to head play. 2) The team with the best overall record in intra division games. 3) The team with the best overall record in intra league games". What tiebreaker is used in BrokenBat? |

| There is no tie-breaker...its done just like baseball did it before Bud Selig put the All-Star rule in. The home field advantage rotates from year to year between divisions in a 2-3-2 format. Steve |

| Question was not about home field advantage, but rather about how the champion is determined when two teams have identical won/loss records at season end. What Broken Bat tiebreaker is used to determine the champion in that case? The rule in MLB is stated above in the previous post. |

| Run difference determines if the teams are tied at the end of the season,so the team with the biggest run difference between the tied teams goes to the playoffs. | ||
