Yeah, really crazy how someone would adjust their goals as the situation changes. Seriously, who does that?

Some head-to-head records, should we need to break some ties...

Spoiler: show

Say No To Drugs won the season series with Jenny Lewis Hitmen 7-3.

Sabo's Goggles and Jenny Lewis Hitmen split the season series 5-5.

Sabo's Goggles has 4-3 lead in the season series with Say No To Drugs, with three games left to be played.

Tie-breakers and postseason format, as outlined in the OP...

The top three teams in the standings at the end of the season will make the playoffs. Tie-breakers for the third spot will be settled via play-in game. These games are considered part of the regular season, so pitchers in them are subjected to regular season rest restrictions. Tie-breakers for the other spots will be based on head-to-head record. If the teams split their meetings, the tie will be broken by whoever had the better record against the highest seeded team overall (this will carry down in the standings until the tie is broken). The second and third place teams will play a best-of-seven series for the right to face the first place team in the World Series.

In the case of a three-way tie, the first tie-breaker will be overall record against the other two teams involved in the tie. The team with the best overall record will get the #1 spot, and the other two will then resort to the tie-breakers mentioned above to break their tie. If the best head to head record is shared between teams, the third team will get the #3 seed, and the other two will resort to the above tie-breakers to break their tie.
