DRAW FORMAT AND SEEDING GUIDELINES
This year's format will be a modified round robin, with each team playing 3
round robin games, with the exception of the host Grey Sox who due to the
uneven number of teams entered will play a fourth game to balance the round
robin format. Only 3 of the Grey Sox round robin games will count in the
official standings. After completion of the round robin, teams will be
seeded according to the criteria below. All teams will advance to the
playoffs; 1st and 2nd after the round robin will receive a double life in
the playoffs, 3, 4 and 5 receive a single life.
The following criteria will be used in seeding the teams at the conclusion
of the modified round robin:
(a) won / loss record
(b) head to head competition if applicable - note if 2 or more teams
are tied and one of the teams has defeated all other tied teams in head
to head competition then it will be awarded the higher seeding.
(c) overall plus / minus (note: maximum run differential per game is 7)
(d) overall fewest runs allowed
(e) overall greater number of runs scored
** overall includes all round robin games played.
(f) in the event that listed criteria a - e, does not resolve the tie,
then a coin toss will be conducted.
