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.
