* ↑ Ties are very uncommon in modern baseball, and are not counted in official standings, but all statistics accumulated in the game are counted. In normal play, ties should not occur in baseball, as the rules state that extra innings are played until one of the two teams wins the game. In modern baseball, tied games can only occur if such a game is the last scheduled between the two teams that season and has no bearing on the postseason. In all other cases, the game is merely suspended and completed at the first opportunity. Tied games were more common in the early days of baseball before the introduction of floodlights in MLB ballparks when darkness would halt games on occasion. The few ties that still occur are usually caused by bad weather.
