Suggestion:
Historical leagues should use the real tiebreaking playoff game procedures actually used in the majors.
Reason:
The rules regarding how two-way ties are resolved via playoff games have changed over the years. Also, the game still does not do three-way tiebreaking playoffs correctly at all.
These sorts of issues should be resolved, since it's getting these kinds of little details correct which really add a feeling of polish to the game. I have just about all the rules needed to do tiebreaking playoff games correctly, so it shouldn't be that hard to get them correctly implemented into the game.
With the historically correct rules implemented, that means that a two-way tie in the NL before 1969 would use a best-of-3 series to break, while in the AL before 1957 a one-game playoff would be used and from 1957-1968 a best-of-3 series would be used, and so on.
Priority:
Medium.
(At the very least, the game should use the correct current MLB methods to resolve ties.)
