DRAW FORMAT AND SEEDING GUIDELINES
This year's format will be a modified round robin, with each
team playing 3 
round robin games, with the exception of the host Grey Sox who
due to the 
uneven number of teams entered will play a fourth game to balance
the round 
robin format. 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.
