How ties were broken
9U · PNW Cal Ripken / Babe Ruth Regional Tournament

Teams often finish pool play with the same win-loss record. When that happens the tiebreaker steps below are applied in order until the tie is broken.

  1. Record
  2. Head to Head
  3. Runs Allowed
  4. Run Diff (max 10 runs counted per game)
  5. Runs Scored

Once a tie is broken, the top team takes the higher place and the remaining teams start over at Step 1 — so two teams left over still get their head-to-head compared.
