    What happens in this situation

    Yankees 86-76
    Royals 86-76
    Tigers 86-76

    Tigers at Royals one game playoff

    Is the loser out of the Wild card because that would be loss 77?

    I'm pretty sure Mogul plays a round-robin in the event of multiple ties like this.

    That's how it works in real life...

    different divisions so the only play off game was for the AL Central

    Verlander gave up 3 before getting an out in the first and I got down 7-0 before losing 7-4.

    The Royals ended up winning the 2009 World Series.

    yes... if the yanks had not tied then there would be no 163rd game. Detroit and Royals are basicly playing for their division. once that game is tied the loser has a worse record. Only time there would be more is if say the sox tied the yanks then the yanks and sox would play each other and KC would play DET. the 2 losers would then be tied for the WC and woudl play a 164th game!!!

    Three teams with same record

    In the event three teams finish with the same record, and two of them are tied for first place, the two teams in the same division would play a tiebreaker Monday for the division title. The loser of that game would then play a wild-card tiebreaker Tuesday against the team from the other division.

    Actually, Clay's said before that he's well aware that it doesn't follow the real life rules, but that it was the best way to do it in the game. I have to run soon, so I can't find the post where he talked about it.

    Yup, it's working as designed.
