Big Jim

Seeding

Seeding is based on win/loss record, In case of a tie in points between two or more teams, the following tiebreaker system will be used to determine the seeding of the teams:

    1. Head-to-head record between the two teams that are tied for the final spot (head-to-head record only applied if tie is between two teams).
    2. Fewest runs allowed between the tied team/s.
    3. Highest total run differential; NOTE: Total run differential is the sum of each game's differential.   
    4. If there is still a tie, then the teams which are tied will come down to a coin toss.
