Here is how MLB does.

Obviously, it gets pretty complicated towards the end of the process so I'm not sure if the game would have the "Last Half" and/or "Last Half + 1" part of the process (not a lot of bang for buck trying to program that in).

Matt would have to provide the full details here.
Thanks. For now I decided to just go back to the 2 wild card setup I was using all along. Thought about turning off the tie breaker games, but sure enough the minute I do so, I will have 2 teams tie for the division lead. I would really want a tie breaker game in that case.
