Chicago edged KC in win percentage .589 to .588 but they finished in a virtual tie for first place, with the Detroit Wolverines just one game back.

However, when I moved the game to the next following day there was no expected playoff between Chicago and Kansas City. The game declared the Black Sox as league champs.

Simple question: why? I thought the games behind was the one factor that determined a champion and if teams were tied, even with different win-loss percentages, there was a playoff.

Even OOTP is confused though. While the Baltimore Bridegrooms have an X next to their name as Atlantic League champs, there is no X next to Chicago. In fact, they still have a magic number of 3, while KC's magic number is 2.

Did you set it up to have tiebreaker games in league settings?
