(At least according to WEEI; I was listening and not watching.) On the 4th one you could hear Joe C laughing in the background of Sean McDonough’s call.

(Before 2003, it alternated between the leagues.) <br /><br />From 2017, home field is decided by, in order, (1) regular-season winning percentage, (2) head-to-head record in the regular season, (3) best record against teams in its own division, and (4) best record against teams in its own league.<br /><br />That's why WS tickets (all postseason tickets, really) are labelled something like "Home Game 1", because that could be used for Game 1 or Game 3 of a postseason series, depending on where it is played, which is not known when the tickets are printed. (Before 2003, they could print exact games on tickets because they knew way in advance which team would be the home team.)allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-26841554665650298442019-09-19T15:27:03.095-07:002019-09-19T15:27:03.095-07:00You've got the score backward, Allan.

Maybe !<br /><br />Can you help me with a query ?<br /><br />What happens IF 2 teams play in WS with say 105 wins each & they haven't played head to head that season ? <br /><br />Who gets home advantage ? Does it go to Common opponents or League Record ?<br /><br />It is obviously a very long shot to happen, but I wonder if they might just toss a coin<br /><br />CheersPaul Hickmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00144667244809443144noreply@blogger.com
