I liked AS GAME winner better, here's why........ https://www.mlb.com/news/world-series-home-field-advantage/c-252671498
• 2018 postseason bracket and schedule
That all changed before the 2017 season, and home-field advantage in the World Series is no longer based on the result of the All-Star Game. Home field (Games 1-2 and 6-7) in this best-of-seven series goes to the team with the higher regular-season winning percentage, regardless of whether team is a Wild Card winner or a Division Series winner. (Of course, in the first World Series in which these rules were implemented, the home team lost Game 7, with the Astros winning 5-1 against the Dodgers in Los Angeles to become 2017 champs.)
If the two pennant winners go into the Fall Classic with identical regular-season records, the first tiebreaker will be head-to-head record in the regular season. If the teams did not play during the season during Interleague Play, the tiebreaker would go to the team with the better overall record against teams in its own division. If that were also a tie, the tiebreaker would be intraleague records (the NL club's record vs. NL teams and the AL team's record vs. AL teams).
Below are the World Series home-field advantage seedings for 2018, which are based on the regular 162-game schedule and do not factor in the two tiebreaker games played in the NL (aka Game 163). And while the Cubs rank higher than the Brewers here despite finishing second to Milwaukee in the NL Central after losing Game 163, it's a moot point because they cannot meet in the World Series. In the DS and LCS, a Wild Card team cannot have home-field advantage, even if they had a better record during the regular season.
Home-field hierarchy for 2018 World Series
1. Red Sox (108-54)
2. Astros (103-59)
3. Yankees (100-62)
4. A's (97-65)
5. Cubs (95-68)*
6. Brewers (96-67)
7. Indians (91-71) **
8. Dodgers (92-71) ***
9. Rockies (91-72)
10. Braves (90-72)* CHC won season series vs. MIL, 11-8
** Did not play COL or LAD, but had better intradivision record
*** LAD won season series vs. COL, 12-7I liked AS GAME winner better, here's why........ https://www.mlb.com/news/world-series-home-field-advantage/c-252671498

And tell me this: I didn't think a Wildcard team could have home field over a division winner, even in the World Series. So, are you saying that they can? That the Yankees can have home field over the Brewers, Dodgers or Braves if they meet up?

This is the mib inc. new solution.
But just think if the Tribe had home field in 1995 & 1997, they would have won one for sure.

So.....you gave NO answer to my question. Can a WC team have the home field advantage over a division winner or not?
To quote from the article......
........"In the DS and LCS, a Wild Card team cannot have home-field advantage, even if they had a better record during the regular season."......... edit add...... and there is this also...... "That all changed before the 2017 season, and home-field advantage in the World Series is no longer based on the result of the All-Star Game. Home field (Games 1-2 and 6-7) in this best-of-seven series goes to the team with the higher regular-season winning percentage, regardless of whether team is a Wild Card winner or a Division Series winner"...........
That's all it says so without digging deeper it looks like in the WS it goes to best record.

What will they do when it is the Indians and Brewers in the World Series? Cry like little pussy bitches?
If it were the NFL, they would simply tell their refs to make sure that like NY and LA make it in.

Oh yeah the big networks love those midwestern championship games.

First meeting of the BOSUX/YANK$$$ in the playoffs since 2004.
The Red Sox and Yankees meet in the postseason for the first time since Boston shocked New York in the 2004 ALCS. Mookie Betts leads the explosive Boston offense in a matchup of 100-win squads in the ALDS at Fenway Park. Full Story (SEE LINK)

Who would’ve guessed that the Browns would have more victories in the month of October than the Indians?

I knew we would get swept.
