Thanks LGO. So in my scenario, OOTP would've gone with #2 (win %), right? And that's the way it likely would've been handled back in 1884, too.

Your suggestion for OOTP to allow the user to define the method is an excellent one...

So back to my scenario, as fyi, I didn't mention above that Louisville forged the tie beating Detroit in three straight to end the regularly-scheduled season. In the first game, the Colonels scored five in the bottom of the ninth to win, 6-5. In the second game, they won 4-3 in 10 innings. And in the regular-season finale they won 6-3. As I indicated above, I went with the one-game playoff option, and in that game, Louisville scored 4 in the 8th to win 7-3. It was Kid Nichols' 3rd win in four days against Detroit. (Two days later Nichols won the opener of the Temple Cup Series against Boston, so he's on quite a roll.)
