==Playoff procedure== Prior to 1998, the league champion was the team with best record over the course of the season. Since 1998, the season has been split into two half-seasons. From 1998 to 2008, the teams with the best records in each half faced off to decide the league champion. If the same team won both halves, they were automatically crowned champions (only one team accomplished this, the 2005 [[Arizona League Giants]]). In 2009, the league split into two divisions, an alignment that was used through the 2012 season. The two teams in each division with the best record in each half-season played off for the division championship, and the winners advanced to the final. If the same team won their division in both halves, they advanced directly to the final. From 2013 to 2019, the six teams who won their division in the first and second half of the season qualified for the playoffs. If a team won both halves, the next best team in that division by overall record qualified for the playoffs. The top two teams by overall record received a bye to the semifinals. All playoff games were single elimination, with the exception of a best-of-3 final.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.milb.com/milb/standings/playoff_procedures.jsp?lid=121&sid=milb|title=Playoff Procedures - MiLB.com Standings - The Official Site of Minor League Baseball|website=MiLB.com|access-date=May 3, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170726094526/http://www.milb.com/milb/standings/playoff_procedures.jsp?lid=121&sid=milb|archive-date=July 26, 2017}}</ref> As of 2022, four teams—three division winners and one wild card team—qualify for the playoffs seeded by winning percentage regardless of division standing, with seeds 1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3 playing in a single-game semi-final. A best-of-three series between the two semi-final winners follows to determine the league champion.<ref>{{cite web |title=MiLB Playoff Procedures |url=https://www.milb.com/events/playoffs/procedures |website=MiLB.com |access-date=28 September 2022}}</ref>
