2010 Playoff Format: UPDATED 4/12/2010 - after careful thought, consideration, and years of experience the league has created a playoff format that seems fair and rewarding for all of our M Street League teams. Fourteen of our twenty-one teams will qualify for the playoffs.
Six teams will receive a first round bye...they are the top four Lucas Division (A) teams, the Feeney Division winner (B), and the Moran Division winner (C). These teams will be seeded for the quarter-final round as follows:
If the playoffs started today...
1. Shennanigans Bar & Grill (1A - div winner)
2. Sidewalk Café (2A)
3. The Playwright (3A)
4. The Playwright (BBG) (4A)
5. The Place (1B - div winner)
6. MasterBatters (1C - div winner)
7. Shamrock Pub (5A)
8. The Junction (4B)
The preliminary round will consist of eight teams competing in a single elimination round for the final two playoff positions (see above). 5A vs 3C, 6A vs 2C, 2B vs 5B, 3B vs 4B. The round will continue until there are two teams remaining (note: the highest seed always plays the lowest seed).
The quarter-final round will be a best of three series...semi-finals is a best of five series...and the finals is a best of seven series.
