At the end of the regular season, twelve teams will advance to the playoffs.  In each league, the three division winners and the three remaining teams with the best record (wildcards teams) will make the playoffs and will be seeded as such:
  • No. 1 seed: Best league record

  • No. 5 seed: Second-best record among Wild Card teams
  • No. 6 seed: Third-best record among Wild Card teams
Item C II: Wild Card Series Week #21
  • For the Wild Card Series, the No. 3 seed will face the No. 6 seed, and the No. 4 seed will face the No. 5 seed.
  • The Nos. 1 and 2 seeds will receive first-round byes and advance directly to the Division Series.
The two non-division winning teams with the best records in each league will play each other to determine the Wild Card entrants.

Item C III: NLDS/ALDS Week #22
  • The No. 1 seed will face the winner of the Wild Card Series between the Nos. 4/5 seeds, while the No. 2 seed will face the winner of the Nos. 3/6 series.
  • The #1 and #2 best teams in each league have home-field advantage in the NLDS/ALDS
1.) The team with the best record in each league will have home field advantage against the team with the worst record in the league.  However, such an opponent cannot be a team in that team's division. In this event, the team with the best record would play the Division Winner with the worst record.

Item C IV: NLCS/ALCS Week #23
  • Winners of NLDS and ALDS
  • The team with the home-field advantage is the division winner with the better record.
Item C V: World Series Week #24 & 25
  • Winners of NLCS and ALCS
  • Home-field advantage in the World Series is indicative of which real life team won the MLB Allstar game that season.
