Cool, thanks for the correction.
The point system in the Mexican Pacific League was created in the late 60s when the league shortened it's schedule from ~90 games to ~60. But don't know exactly why they picked this system. Maybe there are some soccer connections and standing based on point and not on wins.
Before that they even split the season, once, in three parts of ~30 games.
