The 2024 Triple-A National Championship Game, which will feature the winners of the best-of-three International League and Pacific Coast League Championship Series in a single-game format, will be played on Saturday, September 28th in Las Vegas and crown an overall winner of the highest level of the Minor Leagues.
Each Triple-A season will be split into two halves, with the first half ending on June 23rd and the second half commencing on June 25th. The regular season will conclude on Sunday, September 22nd. The first-half winners will serve as the hosts of the pair of best-of-three LCS, which are slated to begin on Tuesday, September 24th. In the event the same Club wins both halves, the Club with the next best winning percentage in the second half will advance. The winners of the two LCS will advance to Las Vegas Ballpark, which also hosted last season’s Triple-A Triple Championship Game, for Saturday’s decisive matchup.
In the event of any ties, the following tiebreakers will apply in the order below:
1. Head-to-head record between the clubs in the respective half (if three or more Clubs, best winning percentage in games among the Clubs).
2. If the Clubs remain tied, best overall winning percentage over the last 20 games.
3. If the Clubs remain tied, best overall winning percentage over an additional game (i.e., the last 21 games, the last 22 games, etc.) until one emerges with a better winning percentage in that span of games.
The format for the 2024 Postseason at Double-A, High-A and Single-A will consist of four teams per league in a best-of-3 Division series, followed by a best-of-three Championship series. The four playoff participants per league will be the winners of each division from both halves based on the best winning percentage of each half. In the event the same Club wins both halves, the Club with the next best winning percentage in the second half will advance.
However, with only six clubs in the Northwest League, the format for the Postseason will consist of a single, best-of-five Championship series. The two playoff participants will be decided based on the best winning percentage of each half. In the event the same Club wins both halves, the Club with the next best winning percentage in the second half will advance.
