Yeah - you need to manually schedule it if you want to follow actual MLB procedures.

Since LGO hasn't jumped in to answer this one, I'll see if I can remember the rule. Feel free to search for his answer, as it's far more likely to be correct than mine.

Currently, I think the rule is that one of the three teams that tied would be chosen at random. That team would not have to play in the first game, but would be on the road for the second game.

Then, there would be a coin flip between the other two teams. The winner would be at home for the first game.

Thus, it would look like this (teams A, B and C all chosen at random):

Game 1: Team A at Team B

Game 2: Team C at (winner of previous game)

The winner of game 2 would get the wild card. LGO and others, correct me if I'm wrong.....
