Tie Breakers in Bracket Play

Bracket play games that end in a tie at the end of regulation will be finished using modified international tie breaker rules - 

• Top of a new inning begins with visiting team placing their last recorded out on 2nd base as a base runner.
• Visiting team begins with 1 out.
• When 3 outs or max run limit for that age is reached, home team bats to finish the extra inning.
• Bottom of a new inning begins with home team placing their last recorded out on 2nd base as a base runner.
• Home team begins with 1 out.
• If the home team goes ahead by 1 run, the game ends.
• If 3 outs are recorded and the score is still tied, start a new inning using tie breaker rules (see bullet point 1)
• Continue until one team wins.
