You are right this is not consistent with MLB rules, but the game does allow it because it matches the wild card in a 3-division setup simply against the top division winner.

Changing this to match MLB has been requested in previous versions. Now however you can have a 10-division setup with 6 wild cards, a 4-division setup with 4 wild cards, etc. and trying to apply that same rule would be problematic.
