The team with the better
regular-season record is the home team in both stages.
The first place finisher from the regular season is the league
champion. It is possible, through The Climax Series, that the league
champion might not make it to The Japan Series.
The first, second and third place finishers from the regular season are in
The Climax Series, the playoffs.
In Stage 1 the second-place team
faces the third-place team in a best-of-three series. The winner advances
to Stage 2.
A one-win advantage is
automatically awarded to the league champion, so in Stage 2 the 1st Place team
(league champion) starts this stage with a one game lead.
The first team to win four games
in the six-game Stage 2 wins the league spot in the Japan Series.
