BRACKET SEEDING PROCEDURES:
- Pool Play Record: The team's win-loss record during the pool play stage will be taken into consideration for seeding purposes.
- Total Runs Allowed: In the event of teams having the same pool play record, the total number of runs allowed by each team will be evaluated. The team with the lower number of runs allowed will receive a higher seeding.
- Run Differential: If teams still have an equal number of runs allowed, the run differential will be considered. The run differential is calculated by subtracting the total runs scored against a team from the total runs scored by that team. A higher run differential will result in a better seeding.
- Head-to-Head: If only two teams are tied based on the above criteria, head-to-head results between the tied teams will determine the seeding. The team with the better head-to-head record will receive the higher seed.
- Coin Flip: If none of the previous criteria provide a clear distinction for seeding, a coin flip will be used as a tiebreaker to determine the final seeding.
