Standings

Section 4.8 of Mabel’s Operating Rules states:

Standings throughout a Season will be determined as follows:

1. Defeating a team within their division will award the winning team 3 points
2. Defeating a team 1 division above theirs will award the winning team 4 points
3. Defeating a team 1 division below theirs will award the winning team 2 points
4. If there is a tie, teams will get half as many points as if they had won. EG: A tie game between A4 and B2 results in 1 point for A4 and 2 points for B2
5. If two teams are tied after (a), compare the win/loss/tie record of those teams against each other in Regular Season play; and
6. If three or more teams are tied after (a), or if two teams remain tied after (a) and (b), compare the teams’ runs differentials for all Regular Season games, to a maximum of 10 runs per game, counting only completed innings.

Because teams will have played (or reported) different numbers of games at different points in the season, the best indicator of mid-season standings is P/GP (points per game played). Please remember to submit your scores.

Runs will be counted only to a maximum difference of 10. If Team X beats Team Y 24 – 7, only 10 runs above Team Y’s score will be counted, so the final score is essentially 17 – 7. Runs for and against only matter if there is a points tie and win/loss and matchup tie between two teams.

Final season standings are based 100% on season play. Both the LIL tournament and the Finals tournament act as their own stand alone events with a winner in each division.
